"The VCPIP1 gene is particularly interesting to our research because it is (a) downregulated when we silence MYBL1 in MDA-MB-231 cells, (b) it is located at the 8q13.1 chromosomal locus, like MYBL1, (c) it is dysregulated in many of the same TNBC patient samples as MYBL1, (d) bioinformatic analyses indicate MYBL1 transcription factor protein binding to the VCPIP1 gene, and (e) both genes are involved in cell cycle signaling mechanisms."

"Adenoid cystic carcinoma is characterized by a recurrent t(6;9)(q22–23;p23–24) translocation that results in a MYB-NFIB fusion gene. xref , xref An alternative MYBL1-NFIB gene fusion has been reported in a subset of cases. xref , xref , xref Various other genes have been reported to substitute for MYB , MYBL1 and NFIB , including TGFRB3, RAD51B, YTHDF3, AIG1, XRCC4 and PTPRD , amongst others. xref , xref , xref – xref In our cohort of 20 AdCCs, the MYB-NFIB fusion was identified in 60% and the MYBL1-NFIB fusion in 25%, while two cases harbored novel NFIB-TBPL1 and MYBL1-VCPIP1 fusions products."

"In addition, because bioinformatic analyses suggest the possible regulation of VCPIP1 by the MYBL1 transcription factor, we decided to experimentally examine the possibility that MYBL1 binds directly to the VCPIP1 promoter region, explaining our previous gene expression results."
