Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC): a multi-functional tumor suppressor gene.
The adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene is a key tumor suppressor gene. Mutations in the gene have been found not only in most colon cancers but also in some other cancers, such as those of the liver. The APC gene product is a 312 kDa protein that has multiple domains, through which it binds to various proteins, including beta-catenin, axin, CtBP, Asefs, IQGAP1, EB1 and microtubules. Studies ...

The other mode of treating these patients are subtotal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis alongwith regular follow up with proctoscopy for development of cancer in retained rectal mucosa(3,7). Recently, Stevan et al. (8) utilized laproscope for total proctocolectomy as well as ileoanal anostomosis while others performed ileopouch anal anastomosis alongwith total proctocolectomy(9,10). Thus t...
متن کاملAlternatively spliced adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene transcripts that delete exons mutated in attenuated APC.
Reverse transcription-PCR combined with either (a) restriction enzyme digestion and repeat PCR or (b) ligase chain reaction has identified two new alternatively spliced transcripts of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. In one of these transcripts exons 1-4 and the first 16 bases of exon 5 are deleted; in the other exons 2-4 and the first 16 bases of 5 are deleted. Both transcripts use a...
متن کاملTumour Suppressor Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) localisation is regulated by both Kinesin-1 and Kinesin-2
Microtubules and their associated proteins (MAPs) underpin the polarity of specialised cells. Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is one such MAP with a multifunctional agenda that requires precise intracellular localisations. Although APC has been found to associate with kinesin-2 subfamily members, the exact mechanism for the peripheral localization of APC remains unclear. Here we show that the ...
متن کاملA metabolic switch controls intestinal differentiation downstream of Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC)
Elucidating signaling pathways that regulate cellular metabolism is essential for a better understanding of normal development and tumorigenesis. Recent studies have shown that mitochondrial pyruvate carrier 1 (MPC1), a crucial player in pyruvate metabolism, is downregulated in colon adenocarcinomas. Utilizing zebrafish to examine the genetic relationship between MPC1 and Adenomatous polyposis ...
