Cheung Pam, Dennis James W
Abstract excerpt
Phosphatase and tensin homolog (Pten) phosphatase opposes intracellular phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling and is a potent tumor suppressor, while Golgi beta1,6 N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (Mgat5) is positively associated with cancer progression and metastasis. beta1,6GlcNAc-branched N-glycans on receptor glycoproteins promote their surface residency and sensitizes cells to growth factor...
