Abstract excerpt
In a human cancer cell line, we previously found a mutation in codon 322 of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK2E322K), the protein showed a faster migration when compared to wild-type in SDS-PAGE and constitutive phosphorylation. However, the reason for the faster migration, and the biochemical and biological properties of the mutation is unknown. In this study, we report that the amino acid...
