Abstract

The 14‐3‐3 proteins are a family of highly conserved proteins that participate in a wide variety of cellular processes. Mounting evidence suggests that 14‐3‐3 proteins have a role in human cancers, however their role in tumorigenesis is unclear. Here we report that over‐expression of 14‐3‐3 γ protein in human lung cancer cell line H322 results in abnormal DNA replication and polyploidization. Cells that overexpress 14‐3‐3 γ are resistant to microtubule inhibitors and can reenter the cell cycle in the absence of mitosis suggesting that elevated levels of 14‐3‐3 γ may enable cells to bypass the mitotic checkpoint. Taken together, our data indicate that 14‐3‐3γ may contribute to tumorigenesis by promoting genomic instability. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

## Abstract 14‐3‐3 Proteins play important roles in a wide range of vital regulatory processes, including signal transduction, apoptosis, cell cycle progression and DNA replication. In mammalian cells, 7 14‐3‐3 isoforms (β, γ, ϵ, η, σ, θ and ζ) have been identified and each of these seems to have d
