Survivin inhibits excessive autophagy in cancer cells but does so independently of its interaction with LC3 (2018)
Journal Article
Humphry, N. J., & Wheatley, S. P. (2018). Survivin inhibits excessive autophagy in cancer cells but does so independently of its interaction with LC3. Biology Open, 7(10), 037374. https://doi.org/10.1242/bio.037374

Survivin expression is pivotal to life and death at the cellular level. For
the past decade its pro-survival activity has been attributed to its
essential role in cell proliferation and its ability to inhibit apoptosis.
However, a growing body of... Read More about Survivin inhibits excessive autophagy in cancer cells but does so independently of its interaction with LC3.

The anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a highly conserved multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that controls mitotic division in eukaryotic cells by tagging cell cycle regulators for proteolysis. APC3 is a key component that contributes to... Read More about Plasmodium APC3 mediates chromosome condensation and cytokinesis during atypical mitosis in male gametogenesis.
