TGFβ-induced changes in membrane curvature influence Ras oncoprotein membrane localization
Abstract In the course of cancer progression tumor cells undergo morphological changes that lead to increased motility and invasiveness thus promoting formation of metastases. This process called epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is triggered by transforming growth factor (TGFβ) but for gai...
