Abstract excerpt
The majority of colorectal tumors are aneuploid because of the underlying chromosome instability (CIN) phenotype, in which a defective mitotic checkpoint is implicated. Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC), a tumor suppressor gene that is commonly mutated in colon cancers, has been suggested in causing CIN; however, the molecular mechanism remains unresolved. In this study, we report an interaction of...
