It has been discovered that gibberish transformation R419X of cereblon (CRBN) is related with autosomal passive non-syndromic mental impediment. Further investigations showed that CRBN ties to the cytosolic C-end of enormous conductance Ca++ enacted potassium channel (BKCa) α-subunit and the cytosolic C-end of a voltage-gated chloride channel-2 (ClC-2), proposing that CRBN may assume a part in memory and learning through controlling the gathering and surface articulation of BKCa and ClC-2 channels. What's more, it has likewise been discovered that CRBN straightforwardly cooperates with the α1 subunit of AMP-enacted protein kinase (AMPK) and forestalls development of a practical holoenzyme with administrative subunits β and γ. Since AMPK is an expert sensor of energy balance that restrains ATP-burning-through anabolic pathways and builds ATP-delivering catabolic pathways, restricting of CRBN with α1 subunit of AMPK may assume a part in these pathways by controlling the capacity of AMPK. Besides, CRBN communicates with harmed DNA restricting protein 1 and structures an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex with Cullin 4 where it capacities as a substrate receptor in which the proteins perceived by CRBN may be ubiquitinated and corrupted by proteasomes. Proteasome-intervened debasement of unneeded or harmed proteins assumes a vital part in keeping up ordinary capacity of a cell, like cell endurance, partitioning, multiplication and development. Intriguingly, another part for CRBN has been recognized, i.e, the limiting of immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), for example thalidomide, to CRBN has now been related with teratogenicity and furthermore the cytotoxicity of IMiDs, including lenalidomide, which are broadly used to treat various myeloma patients. CRBN probably assumes a significant part in restricting, ubiquitination and corruption of variables associated with keeping up capacity of myeloma cells. These new discoveries with respect to the job of CRBN in IMiD activity will animate exceptional examination of CRBN's downstream considers included keeping up normal capacity of a cell.
