Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common form of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). Elevated expression of c-MYC in DLBCL is associated with poor prognosis of the disease. In different cancers, c-MYC has been found regulated by different ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs), but to date, the role of USPs in c-MYC regulation has not been investigated in DLBCL. In this study, in situ co expression of c-MYC and three candidates USPs, USP28, USP36 and USP37, have been investigated in both the ABC and GCB subtypes of DLBCL. This shows that USP37 expression is positively correlated with the c-MYC expression in the ABC subtype of DLBCL. Structurally, both c-MYC and USP37 has shown large proportion of intrinsically disordered regions, minimizing their chances for full structure crystallization. Peptide array and docking simulations has shown that N-terminal region of c-MYC interacts directly with residues within and in proximity of catalytically active C19 domain of the USP37. Given the structural properties of the interaction sites in the c-MYC-USP37 complex, a peptidyl inhibitor has been designed. Molecular docking has shown that the peptide fits well in the targeted site of c-MYC, masking most of its residues involved in the binding with USP37. The findings could further be exploited to develop therapeutic interventions against the ABC subtype of DLBCL.
