Study discovered a role of EIF3F-STAT3 interaction in the genetic control of cell migration and metastasis in human lung adenocarcinoma. EIF3F promotes lung cancer cell metastasis in vivo by regulating a cluster of 34 metastasis-promoting genes including Snail2. The interaction between EIF3F and STAT3 controlled the EIF3F-mediated increase in Snail2 expression and cellular invasion.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
