Defining the role of SF3B1K700E mutations in ER+ breast cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-09-30)
Mutations in SF3B1, a component of the RNA splicing machinery, underpin a number of aggressive cancers. Hotspot mutations in SF3B1 are present in around 3% of breast cancers, are enriched in oestrogen receptor positive ...
How RhoGEFs drive triple negative breast cancer cell invasion through the activation of YAP and TAZ
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-03-31)
Dynamical remodelling of the cytoskeleton is essential for triple negative breast cancer metastasis (TNBC). Cell shape is regulated by RhoGEFs which activate Rho GTPases resulting in changes in actin polymerisation, ...
BRCA1 loss-of-function triggers metabolic vulnerability to glutamine deprivation
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)
Germline and somatic mutations of BRCA1 are associated with cancer initiation and progression. Although the role of BRCA1 is clearly defined in DNA-repair pathways, alternative functions of BRCA1 still remain obscure. Here, ...
