Abstract excerpt
The tumor suppressor Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is a large, multidomain protein with many identified cellular functions. The best characterized role of APC is to scaffold a protein complex that negatively regulates Wnt signaling via β-catenin destruction. This destruction is mediated by β-catenin binding to centrally located 15- and 20-amino acid repeat regions of APC. More than 80% of cancers of the colon...
