hScrib is a functional homologue of the Drosophila tumour suppressor ScribbleLukas E Dow
Cell Cycle and Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, St Andrew s Place, East Melbourne, Victoria 3002, Australia
Oncogene 22:9225-30. 2003..These data demonstrate that hScrib is a functional homologue of DmScrib and therefore predict an important role for hScrib in the suppression of mammalian tumorigenesis...
The Scribble and Par complexes in polarity and migration: friends or foes?Patrick O Humbert
Cell Cycle and Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Melbourne, VIC 3002, Australia
Trends Cell Biol 16:622-30. 2006..Based on the known interactions of Scribble and Par complexes with each other and with other signalling pathways, we propose models by which Par and Scribble might interact to regulate cell migration...
Control of tumourigenesis by the Scribble/Dlg/Lgl polarity moduleP O Humbert
Cell Cycle and Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Research Division, Peter MacCallum Cancer Center, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Oncogene 27:6888-907. 2008..We review the evidence for the involvement of Scribble, Dlg, and Lgl in cancer, and how the various functions ascribed to these tumour suppressors in Drosophila and mammalian systems may impact on the process of tumourigenesis...
SCRIB expression is deregulated in human prostate cancer, and its deficiency in mice promotes prostate neoplasiaHelen B Pearson
Cell Cycle and Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, East Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
J Clin Invest 121:4257-67. 2011..These data suggest that the polarity network could provide a new avenue for therapeutic intervention...
Polarity regulators and the control of epithelial architecture, cell migration, and tumorigenesisLukas E Dow
Cell Cycle and Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Peter MacCallum Cancer Center, Melbourne, Australia
Int Rev Cytol 262:253-302. 2007..Particular reference will be made as to how the Scribble and Par polarity complexes may be involved in the regulation of apical-basal polarity, migration, and tumorigenesis...
The Scribble-Dlg-Lgl polarity module in development and cancer: from flies to manImogen Elsum
Cell Cycle and Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Research Division, Peter MacCallum Cancer Center, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Essays Biochem 53:141-68. 2012..In addition to these physiological roles, an important role for polarity proteins in cancer progression has also been uncovered, with loss of polarity and tissue architecture being strongly correlated with metastatic disease...
Asymmetric cell division of T cells upon antigen presentation uses multiple conserved mechanismsJane Oliaro
Cancer Immunology Program, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, St Andrews Place, East Melbourne, Australia
J Immunol 185:367-75. 2010..These findings suggest that T cells have selectively adapted a number of evolutionarily conserved mechanisms to generate diversity through asymmetric cell division...
Identification of novel Ras-cooperating oncogenes in Drosophila melanogaster: a RhoGEF/Rho-family/JNK pathway is a central driver of tumorigenesisAnthony M Brumby
Peter MacCallum Cancer Center, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Genetics 188:105-25. 2011..Collectively our analysis reveals the importance of the RhoGEF/Rho-family/JNK pathway in cooperative tumorigenesis with Ras(ACT)...

Cancer Res 69:6033-41. 2009..melanogaster and optimally activate Sd. This shows that Yki/YAP WW domains have distinct regulatory roles in different cell types and implies the existence of proteins that promote tissue growth in collaboration with Yki and Sd...
A network of PDZ-containing proteins regulates T cell polarity and morphology during migration and immunological synapse formationMandy J Ludford-Menting
Immune Signalling Laboratory, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, East Melbourne, Victoria 3002, Australia
Immunity 22:737-48. 2005..By dynamically coordinating molecular distribution throughout the T cell, this network provides a mechanism by which T cell function and polarity are linked...
New tricks for old dogs: unexpected roles for cell cycle regulators revealed using animal modelsPatrick O Humbert
Cell Cycle and Cancer Genetics Laboratory, Research Division, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, East Melbourne, Australia
Curr Opin Cell Biol 16:614-22. 2004..Moreover, checkpoint regulators, which are not essential for viability in yeast and cultured cells, play important roles in cell cycle control during development...
