The adenomatous polyposis coli tumor suppressor protein localizes to plasma membrane sites involved in active cell migration.
Open accessAbstract
Mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene are linked to polyp formation in familial and sporadic colon cancer, but the functions of the protein are not known. We show that APC protein localizes mainly to clusters of puncta near the ends of microtubules that extend into actively migrating regions of epithelial cell membranes. This subcellular distribution of APC protein requires microtubules, but not actin filaments. APC protein-containing membranes are actively involved in cell migration in response to wounding epithelial monolayers, addition of the motorgen hepatocyte growth factor, and during the formation of cell-cell contacts. In the intestine, APC protein levels increase at the crypt/villus boundary, where cell migration is crucial for enterocyte exit from the crypt and where cells accumulate during polyp formation that is linked to mutations in the microtubule-binding domain of APC protein. Together, these data indicate that APC protein has a role in directed cell migration.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
