Overexpression of c-Myc and cell immortalization alters c-Myc phosphorylation [PDF]
Using an extensive series of deletion and site-specific mutation constructs, we have identified five new phosphorylation sites in c-Myc in the N-terminal transactivation domain and near the C-terminal DNA binding/heterodimerization domain. We have also found that Thr-58 phosphorylation is regulated by specific cellular events.

Apoptotic signaling by c-MYC [PDF]
c-MYC has a pivotal function in growth control, differentiation and apoptosis, and its abnormal expression is associated with many tumors. Overexpression of c-MYC sensitizes cells to apoptosis by a variety of stimuli. The decision of a cell to undergo apoptosis and how this apoptotic response is regulated by c-MYC depends on the specific cell type and ...

Runx transcription factors repress human and murine c-Myc expression in a DNA-binding and C-terminally dependent manner. [PDF]
The transcription factors Runx1 and c-Myc have individually been shown to regulate important gene targets as well as to collaborate in oncogenesis. However, it is unknown whether there is a regulatory relationship between the two genes. In this study, we

Integration of genome and chromatin structure with gene expression profiles to predict c-MYC recognition site binding and function. [PDF]
The MYC genes encode nuclear sequence specific-binding DNA-binding proteins that are pleiotropic regulators of cellular function, and the c-MYC proto-oncogene is deregulated and/or mutated in most human cancers. Experimental studies of MYC binding to the

Sequential and coordinated actions of c-Myc and N-Myc control appendicular skeletal development. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: During limb development, chondrocytes and osteoblasts emerge from condensations of limb bud mesenchyme. These cells then proliferate and differentiate in separate but adjacent compartments and function cooperatively to promote bone growth ...

Myc interacts with Max and Miz1 to repress C/EBPδ promoter activity and gene expression
Background "Loss of function" alterations in CCAAT/Enhancer Binding Proteinδ (C/EBPδ) have been reported in a number of human cancers including breast, prostate and cervical cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and acute myeloid leukemia.

c-Myc and Cancer Metabolism [PDF]
Abstract The processes of cellular growth regulation and cellular metabolism are closely interrelated. The c-Myc oncogene is a “master regulator” which controls many aspects of both of these processes. The metabolic changes which occur in transformed cells, many of which are driven by c-Myc overexpression, are necessary to support the ...
