Splice Variants of the Forkhead Box Protein AFX Exhibit Dominant Negative Activity and Inhibit AFXα-Mediated Tumor Cell Apoptosis

BACKGROUND: Loss-of-function in the apoptosis-inducing genes is known to facilitate tumorigenesis. AFX (FOXO4), a member of forkhead transcription factors functions as a tumor suppressor and has 2 isoforms, AFXα (505 a.a.) and AFXζ (450 a.a.). In human cancer cells, we identified an N-terminally del...
