Abstract excerpt
The adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein is a negative regulator of the mitogenic transcription factor beta-catenin by stimulating its proteasomal degradation. This involves several APC domains, including the binding sites for axin/conductin, the recently described beta-Catenin Inhibitory Domain (CID) and the third 20 amino acid repeat (20R3) that is a beta-catenin-binding site. The four 15 amino acid repeats...
