Abstract 1316: Estrogen receptor-α dictates the subcellular localization of ERK5 to control differential proliferation and invasion programs of breast cancer cells.
Abstract:Mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are key players in relaying extracellular signals to the cell nucleus and are often overexpressed in aggressive and endocrine-resistant breast cancers. Our previous studies (Madak-Erdogan et al. Mol Cell Biol 31:226,2011) revealed that one such kinase, ERK2, was recruited to distal enhancers of estradiol(E2)-regulated genes together with estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and collaborated with ERα to regulate gene expression and cell proliferation programs in response to ho… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
