Abstract excerpt
Signal transduction by beta-catenin involves its posttranslational stabilization and import to the nucleus where it interacts with transcription factors. Recent implications for beta-catenin signaling in cancer prompted us to examine colon cancer cell lines for the expression of LEF-1, a transcription factor that binds to beta-catenin. The analysis of several cell lines revealed the expression of LEF1 mRNA and a...
