Observations
Ectopic expression of ABI3 lowered transforming activity, reduced in vitro tumor growth properties, suppressed in vitro anchorage-independent growth and in vivo tumor formation, whilst also increasing cellular senescence. These responses were accompanied by upregulation of cell cycle inhibitor p21 and reduced ERK phosphorylation and E2F1 expression.

    Description
    This gene encodes a member of an adaptor protein family. Members of this family encode proteins containing a homeobox homology domain, proline rich region and Src-homology 3 (SH3) domain, and are components of the Abi/WAVE complex which regulates actin polymerization. The encoded protein inhibits ectopic metastasis of tumor cells as well as cell migration. This may be accomplished through interaction with p21-activated kinase. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]
