Abstract
The mammalian homolog of the Drosophila discs large tumor suppressor protein Dlg functions as a scaffolding protein that facilitates the transmission of diverse signals. In the present study, we attempted to identify the downstream target genes of Dlg, and found that Dlg up-regulates expression of the ELR+ CXC chemokine Scyb5, which has been implicated in the immune system. Our finding suggests that Scyb5 may play an important role in the tumor suppressor function of Dlg.
