Abstract excerpt
Several previous studies in a variety of systems have suggested that phosphorylation at S45 of beta-catenin is essential for subsequent phosphorylation at more NH(2)-terminal residues. Using genetic models expressing beta-catenin under endogenous regulation, we find that phosphorylation of beta-catenin at S45 is not required for phosphorylation at residues S33, S37, or T41 in human colon cancer cells, in contrast...
