Ruff et al. demonstrate that phosphorylation of the androgen receptor and 14-3-3 ζ by PIM1 kinase coordinates their interaction and chromatin occupancy at genes involved in cell migration and invasion. The authors conclude that PIM1 phosphorylation of these substrates regulates the AR transcriptome in prostate cancer cells.
