Tumorigenic fragments of APC cause dominant defects in directional cell migration in multiple model systems
SUMMARY Nonsense mutations that result in the expression of truncated, N-terminal, fragments of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) tumour suppressor protein are found in most sporadic and some hereditary colorectal cancers. These mutations can cause tumorigenesis by eliminating β-catenin-binding s...
