Dpc4 transcriptional activation and dysfunction in cancer cells.

Cancer research - 15 Oct 1998

Dai J L, Turnacioglu K K, Schutte M, Sugar A Y, Kern S E

Abstract excerpt

Dpc4 (Smad4) is implicated in mediation of signals from transforming growth factor (TGF) beta and related ligands, and wild-type Dpc4 mediates TGF-beta-stimulated gene transcription at specific DNA sequences bound by Dpc4 [Smad binding element (SBE)]. We characterized panels of DPC4 tumor mutations and cancer cell lines. Amino acid substitutions within the NH2-terminal third of Dpc4 weakened or ablated...
