Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the serine-threonine tumor-suppressor kinase LKB1 are responsible for Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, characterized by hamartomatous proliferation and an increased risk of developing cancer. Mutations in lkb1 have also been identified in sporadic cancers, suggesting a wider role for LKB1 in cancer that is not limited to hamartomatous polyposis syndromes. Here, we show that LKB1 catalytically deficient...
