Conformational changes and translocation of tissue-transglutaminase to the plasma membranes: role in cancer cell migration.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Bowel cancer is common and is a major cause of death. Most people with bowel symptoms who meet the criteria for urgent referral to secondary care will not be found to have bowel cancer, and some people who are found to have cancer will have been referred routinely rather than urgently.
