Functional Role of Asparaginyl Endopeptidase Ubiquitination by TRAF6 in Tumor Invasion and Metastasis
7 Mar 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Asparaginyl endopeptidase (AEP) has been implicated in human cancer development. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying AEP regulation, including the role of pro-AEP activation, remain elusive. METHODS: We investigated the regulation of AEP by TRAF6 and its effects on tumor progression and metastasis in cancer cell lines, murine models, and specimens from patients using biochemical analyses,...
