Jun: stealth, stability, and transformation

Mol Cell. 2005 Aug 19;19(4):432-3. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2005.08.004.

Abstract

A recent paper by Wei and collaborators in Cancer Cell sheds light on the effects of one of the mutations in v-Jun and has broad implications for our understanding of control mechanisms that direct the timing of important cell cycle functions (Wei et al., 2005).
