Inactivation of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene has been shown to initiate the majority of colorectal cancer (CRC), including a familial form called familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). One consequence of the APC mutation is the activation of the ␤-catenin (CTNNB1)/T-cell transcription fa
