AKT3-mediated IWS1 phosphorylation promotes the proliferation of EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinomas through cell cycle-regulated U2AF2 RNA splicing

IWS1 regulates multiple steps in RNA metabolism, including RNA elongation and alternative RNA splicing. Here the authors show that AKT3 phosphorylates IWS1, which alters U2AF2 RNA splicing and promotes growth of lung adenocarcinomas via a Sororin/ERK-dependent pathway.
