Abstract excerpt
Emerging evidence indicates that Nanog is intimately involved in tumorigenesis, in part, through regulation of the cancer-initiating cell (CIC) population. However, the regulation and role of Nanog in tumorigenesis are still poorly understood. In this study, human Nanog was identified to be phosphorylated by human protein kinase Cɛ at multiple residues, including T200 and T280. Our work indicated that...
