摘要 |
The present invention provides modulators of beta -catenin phosphorylation. More specifically, the present invention provides inhibitors and enhancers of beta -catenin Serine 45 (S45) phosphorylation. Examples of inhibitors provided by the invention are the proteins Dishevelled (Dvl), Wnt, phosphatase PP2A and CKI7. Examples of enhancers of beta-catenin phosphorylation are phosphatase inhibitors and proteins that promote -catenin acetylation, like FRAT1. In addition, the present invention provides compositions and uses of the modulators of the invention, specifically for the treatment of cancer, as well as a method for screening such modulators.
