The invention discloses a recombinant ubiquitin ligase PTB-U-box fusion gene and an expression vector and application thereof. The recombinant ubiquitin ligase PTB-U-box fusion gene is formed by connecting a PTB domain gene of IRS-1 and a U-box domain gene of carboxy terminus of Hsc70 Interacting protein (CHIP), and the specific nucleotide sequence is shown as SEQ ID No. 1. The constructed PTB-U-box fusion gene can be cloned to different expression vectors so as to enter tumor cells through different paths to play a role, and the expression vectors comprise eukaryotic expression vectors or adenovirus expression vectors. After the fusion gene transfects the tumor cells, the carcinogenic related protein IGF-1R of the host tumor cells can be regulated down, the cell proliferation and intrusion capacities of the tumor cells are remarkably reduced, and the fusion gene shows proliferation inhibition and intrusion inhibition on the tumor cells so as to achieve the anti-tumor effect.

The present invention relates to fusion constructs of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) and their use for the treatment of cancer and in regenerative medicine. By this approach, the GPI-anchored TIMP proteins are incorporated into the surface membrane of tumor cells and render tumor cells sensitive to FAS-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, the fusion constructs of the present invention are effective agents useful in wound healing applications. In one embodiment, the TIMP is linked to mucin followed by GPI in order to enhance surface presentation. The use of GPI to link TIMP renders the resulting fusion protein particularly useful as an anti-cancer agent for the treatment of cancer, and, in particular, any residual cancer following an incomplete surgical resection of primary tumors in an individual.
