The ubiquitin (Ub)–proteasome system (UPS) is an important regulatory component in colorectal cancer (CRC), and the cell cycle is also characterized to play a significant role in CRC. In this present study, we firstly identified UPS-associated differentially expressed genes and all the differentially expressed protein-coding genes in CRC through three differential analyses. UPS-associated genes were also further analyzed via survival analysis. A weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to identify the cell cycle-associated genes. We used protein–protein interaction (PPI) network to comprehensively mine the potential mechanism of the UPS–cell cycle regulatory axis. Moreover, we constructed a signature based on UPS-associated genes to predict the overall survival of CRC patients. Our research provides a novel insight view of the UPS and cell cycle system in CRC.
