== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CBL_HUMAN CBL_HUMAN] Defects in CBL are the cause of Noonan syndrome-like disorder with or without juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (NSLL) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/613563 613563]. A syndrome characterized by a phenotype reminiscent of Noonan syndrome. Clinical features are highly variable, including facial dysmorphism, short neck, developmental delay, hyperextensible joints and thorax abnormalities with widely spaced nipples. The facial features consist of triangular face with hypertelorism, large low-set ears, ptosis, and flat nasal bridge. Some patients manifest cardiac defects.<ref>PMID:20619386</ref> 
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CBL_HUMAN CBL_HUMAN] Adapter protein that functions as a negative regulator of many signaling pathways that are triggered by activation of cell surface receptors. Acts as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase, which accepts ubiquitin from specific E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, and then transfers it to substrates promoting their degradation by the proteasome. Recognizes activated receptor tyrosine kinases, including KIT, FLT1, FGFR1, FGFR2, PDGFRA, PDGFRB, EGFR, CSF1R, EPHA8 and KDR and terminates signaling. Recognizes membrane-bound HCK and other kinases of the SRC family and mediates their ubiquitination and degradation. Participates in signal transduction in hematopoietic cells. Plays an important role in the regulation of osteoblast differentiation and apoptosis. Essential for osteoclastic bone resorption. The Tyr-731 phosphorylated form induces the activation and recruitment of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase to the cell membrane in a signaling pathway that is critical for osteoclast function.<ref>PMID:10514377</ref> <ref>PMID:11896602</ref> <ref>PMID:14739300</ref> <ref>PMID:15190072</ref> <ref>PMID:17509076</ref> <ref>PMID:18374639</ref> <ref>PMID:19689429</ref> <ref>PMID:21596750</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Casitas B-lineage lymphoma (CBL) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase critical for negatively regulating receptor protein tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Deleterious CBL mutants lose E3 activity, but act as adaptors that gain function to cause myeloproliferative neoplasms. Currently, there is no targeted treatment available for patients with CBL mutant-dependent disorders. By combining phage-display technology and structure-based optimization, we discovered CBLock, a nanomolar affinity peptide inhibitor, that binds the substrate-binding site of CBL's tyrosine kinase binding domain (TKBD). CBLock disrupts the interaction between CBL mutants and RTKs, thereby impairing RTK-mediated priming of adaptor function of CBL mutants and downstream signaling. Notably, CBLock binds TKBD without inducing conformational changes, thereby preserving its ligand-free native conformation. In contrast, when CBL binds RTK substrates, TKBD undergoes a conformational change. Maintaining the native CBL TKBD conformation was crucial for CBLock to inhibit proliferation, induce cell cycle arrest, and promote apoptosis in leukemia cells harboring CBL mutations. In a mouse xenograft model of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), CBLock reduced tumor burden and improved survival rate. Moreover, CBLock inhibited the proliferation of cells derived from patients with CBL mutations. Therefore, inhibiting CBL TKBD in its native state presents a promising therapeutic opportunity in targeting mutant CBL-dependent leukemia.

Locking CBL TKBD in its native conformation presents a novel therapeutic opportunity in mutant CBL-dependent leukemia.,Ahmed SF, Anand J, Zhang W, Buetow L, Rishi L, Mitchell L, Bohlen J, Lilla S, Sibbet GJ, Nixon C, Patel A, Majorek KA, Zanivan S, Bustamante JC, Sidhu SS, Blyth K, Huang DT Mol Ther. 2025 May 5:S1525-0016(25)00361-2. doi: 10.1016/j.ymthe.2025.04.042.
