“…In response to oxidative or electrophilic stress, however, multiple KEAP1 cysteine residues are oxidized, causing the release, stabilization and nuclear translocation of NFE2L2, which, upon interacting with members of the small bZIP Maf family, alters the expression of several hundred target genes and mediates an anti-oxidant response [49][50][51]. An average of 4.6% of HBs, (range 0-9.8%) harbor missense mutations in one of NFE2L2's two KEAP1-interacting domains, which leads to NFE2L2's stabilization and nuclear localization even in the absence of any exogenous stress [19,48,[52][53][54]. Additionally, as many as 20% of certain adult epithelial neoplasms and 50% of HBs amplify the WT NFE2L2 gene at 2q32.1 and allow its encoded protein to stoichiometrically override the KEAP1 checkpoint [19,48,55,56].…”
