WDFY2 restrains matrix metalloproteinase secretion and cell invasion by controlling VAMP3-dependent recycling
Abstract
WDFY2 is known as a tumour suppressor but its function is unclear. Here, the authors show that WDFY2 interacts with the v-SNARE VAMP3, leading to a suppression of the metalloprotease MT1-MMP secretion, suggesting that WDFY2 acts a tumour suppressor by suppressing MT1-MMP secretion.
