A recent biochemical analysis examines how a family of enzymes called atypical protein kinase Cs can have opposing effects on the growth of tumor cells—answering a persistent question in #cancer biology. #Biochemistry @UCSDPharm @NewtonLab scim.ag/4hqhEcY

Why do aPKCs have both tumor-suppressing and tumorigenic effects? New work links this contradiction to whether they are altered by S1P or PDK1, which target the same site but engender opposite effects on #apoptosis. @UCSDPharm @NewtonLab scim.ag/4hqhEcY

Science, surfing and community came together once again for Legends of Science and Surfing. 🌊 From our oncology symposium to the 33rd annual Surfing Invitational, it was inspiring to see this community rally around a shared purpose: advancing cancer research. Grateful to all who made it possible.
