Mechanism of Human PTEN Localization Revealed by Heterologous Expression in Dictyostelium

Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is one of the most frequently mutated tumor suppressor genes in cancers. PTEN plays a central role in phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PIP3) signaling and converts PIP3 to phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate (PIP2) at the plasma membrane. Despite...
