Ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes E2S (UBE2S) and E2C (UBE2C), which mediate the biological process of ubiquitination, have been widely reported in various cancers. Numb, the cell fate determinant and tumor suppressor, was also involved in ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. However, the interaction between UBE2S/UBE2C and Numb and their roles in the clinical outcome of breast cancer (BC) are not widely elucidated. Oncomine, Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database, qRT-PCR, and Western blot analyses were utilized to analyze UBE2S/UBE2C and Numb expression in various cancer types and their respective normal controls, breast cancer tissues, and breast cancer cell lines. The expression of UBE2S, UBE2C, and Numb in BC patients with different ER, PR, and HER2 status, grades, stages, and survival status was compared. By Kaplan–Meier plotter, we further evaluated the prognostic value of UBE2S, UBE2C, and Numb in BC patients. We also explored the potential regulatory mechanisms underlying UBE2S/UBE2C and Numb through overexpression and knockdown experiments in BC cell lines and performed growth and colony formation assays to assess cell malignancy. In this study, we showed that UBE2S and UBE2C were overexpressed while Numb was downregulated in BC, and in BC of higher grade, stage, and poor survival. Compared to hormone receptor negative (HR−) BC cell lines or tissues, HR+ BC demonstrated lower UBE2S/UBE2C and higher Numb, corresponding to better survival. We also showed that increased UBE2S/UBE2C and reduced Numb predicted poor prognosis in BC patients, as well as in ER+ BC patients. In BC cell lines, UBE2S/UBE2C overexpression decreased the level of Numb and enhanced cell malignancy, while knocking down UBE2S/UBE2C demonstrated the opposite effects. UBE2S and UBE2C downregulated Numb and enhanced BC malignancy. The combination of UBE2S/UBE2C and Numb could potentially serve as novel biomarkers for BC.
