Role of c-Src and focal adhesion kinase in progression and metastasis of estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer.

abstract：:The chaperonin containing t-complex polypeptide 1 (CCT) is a heterooligomeric molecular chaperone that assists in the folding of actin, tubulin, and other cytosolic proteins. We show here that degradation of CCT in mammalian cells is inhibited by a proteasome-specific inhibitor, lactacystin. When CCT synthesis was inh...
