Abstract excerpt
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3 (MAP2K3) is a member of the dual specificity kinase group. Growing evidence links MAP2K3 to invasion and tumor progression. Here, we identify MAP2K3 as a transcriptional target of endogenous gain-of-function p53 mutants R273H, R175H, and R280K. We show that MAP2K3 modulation occurred at the mRNA and protein levels and that endogenous mutant p53 proteins are capable of...
