Li et al. in [Inf. Process. Lett. 77 (2001) 35--41] proposed the shuffle cube SQn as an attractive interconnection network topology for massive parallel and distributed systems. By far, symmetric properties of the shuffle cube remains unknown. In this paper, we show that SQn is not vertex-transitive for all n>2, which is not an appealing property in interconnection networks. To overcome this limitation, two novel vertex-transitive variants of the shuffle-cube, namely simplified shuffle-cube SSQn and balanced shuffle cube BSQn are introduced. Then, routing algorithms of SSQn and BSQn for all n>2 are given respectively. Furthermore, we show that both SSQn and BSQn possess Hamiltonian cycle embedding for all n>2. Finally, as a by-product, we mend a flaw in the Property 3 in [IEEE Trans. Comput. 46 (1997) 484--490].
