The essential clathrin adapter protein complex-2 is tumor suppressive specifically in vivo by Seth P. Zimmerman, Lili B. DeGraw, Christopher M. Counter

“…In tumors, alternative iron transport pathways allow pro-tumor effects of Adapter Protein complex-2 loss to manifest. In the most sensitive case, this is attributed to reprogramming the plasma membrane proteome, retaining integrins on the surface leading to Focal Adhesion Kinase phosphorylation and induction of proliferative signals. …”
