Abstract excerpt
KRAS is one of the most frequently mutated oncogenes, especially in lung cancers. Targeting of KRAS directly or the downstream effector signaling machinery is of prime interest in treating lung cancers. Here, we uncover that ERK3, a ubiquitously expressed atypical MAPK, is required for KRAS-mediated NSCLC tumors. ERK3 is highly expressed in lung cancers, and oncogenic KRAS led to the activation and stabilization...
