Gene Name RUBCN
Chromosomal Location 3q29
Function
Inhibits PIK3C3 activity; under basal conditions negatively regulates PI3K complex II (PI3KC3-C2) function in autophagy. Negatively regulates endosome maturation and degradative endocytic trafficking and impairs autophagosome maturation process. Can sequester UVRAG from association with a class C Vps complex (possibly the HOPS complex) and negatively regulates Rab7 activation; Involved in regulation of pathogen-specific host defense of activated macrophages. Following bacterial infection promotes NADH oxidase activity by association with CYBA thereby affecting TLR2 signaling and probably other TLR-NOX pathways. Stabilizes the CYBA:CYBB NADPH oxidase heterodimer, increases its association with TLR2 and its phagosome trafficking to induce antimicrobial burst of ROS and production of inflammatory cytokines . Following fungal or viral infection (implicating CLEC7A (dectin-1)-mediated myeloid cell activation or DDX58/RIG-I-dependent sensing of RNA viruses) negatively regulates pro-inflammatory cytokine production by association with CARD9 and sequestering it from signaling complexes.

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A Methylation Regulator of This Target Gene [1]
Response Summary The upregulation of METTL3 and YTHDF1 induced by lipotoxicity contributes to the elevated expression level of Beclin-1 associated RUN domain containing protein (RUBCN/Rubicon) in an m6A-dependent manner, which inhibits the fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes and further suppresses the clearance of LDs via lysosomes in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Hep-G2 Hepatoblastoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0027
In-vivo Model All mice were housed in specific pathogen-free conditions in the animal facility with constant temperature and humidity under a 12-h light/12-h dark cycle, with free access to water and food. After a week of adaptation, they were then divided into two groups randomly and fed with a HFD (60 kcal% fat, D12492, Research Diets) or standard normal chow diet (CD) for 16 weeks, respectively.
