Abstract excerpt
Beta-catenin is a multifunctional protein involved in both cadherin-mediated adhesion and the wnt signaling cascade. Mutations in exon 3 of beta-catenin have been identified in many cancers. In addition to disruption of key serine and threonine residues, mutations are frequently reported in other residues in exon 3 that are not kinase substrates. The most frequently mutated nonserine/threonine residues are D32...
