Small nucleolar RNA SNORD50A and SNORD50B (SNORD50A/B) has been reported to be recurrently deleted and function as a putative tumor suppressor in different types of cancer by binding to and suppressing the activity of the KRAS oncoproteins. Its deletion correlates with poorer patient survival. However, in this study, we surprisingly found that SNORD50A/B loss predicted a better survival in breast cancer patients carrying wild-type p53. Functional studies showed that SNORD50A/B deletion strongly inhibited the proliferation, migration, invasion and tumorigenic potential, and induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in p53 wild-type breast cancer cells, while exerted the opposite effects in p53 mutated breast cancer cells. This was also supported by ectopically expressing SNORD50A/B in both p53 wild-type and mutated breast cancer cells. Mechanistically, SNORD50A/B clearly enhances the interaction between E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM21 and its substrate GMPS by forming a complex among them, thereby promoting GMPS ubiquitination and its subsequent cytoplasmic sequestration. SNORD50A/B deletion in p53 wild-type breast cancer cells will release GMPS and induce the translocation of GMPS into the nucleus, where GMPS can recruit USP7 and form a complex with p53, thereby decreasing p53 ubiquitination, stabilizing p53 proteins, and inhibiting malignant phenotypes of cancer cells. Altogether, the present study first reports that SNORD50A/B plays an oncogenic role in p53 wild-type breast cancers by mediating TRIM21-GMPS interaction.

The noncoding RNAs SNORD50A and SNORD50B-mediated TRIM21-GMPS interaction promotes the growth of p53 wild-type breast cancers by degrading p53
