Atypical plant homeodomain of UBR7 functions as an H2BK120Ub ligase and breast tumor suppressor

H2B monoubiquitination is implicated in oncogenesis. Here, the authors show that UBR7 PHD finger is a H2BK120 monoubiquitin ligase that acts a tumour suppressor in breast cancer by suppressing gene expression for EMT, while promoting expression of CDH4 which restrain WNT/β-cat pathway.
