Abstract excerpt
Expression of the human protein ST5-p70 correlates with reduced tumorigenic phenotype in mammalian cells, reverts their transformed phenotype, and restores their contact-dependent growth. Furthermore, expression of p70 in COS-7 cells suppresses activation of mitogen activated protein kinase MAPK/ERK2 by the largest ST5 product, p126, in response to epidermal growth factor stimulation. Here we show that deletions...
