Description
MUTATED IN COLORECTAL CANCERS (MCC) is a tumor suppressor gene. It is mapped to 5q22.2. This gene suppresses cell proliferation and the Wnt/b-catenin pathway in colorectal cancer cells. MCC also Inhibits DNA binding of b-catenin/TCF/LEF transcription factors, and it is Involved in cell migration independently of RAC1, CDC42 and p21-activated kinase (PAK) activation. What's more, MCC can interact with SCRIB (via phosphorylated PDZ-binding motif), EZR, SNX27, SLC9A3R1 and SLC9A3R2
