Popis: c-Ski is an evolutionary conserved protein that is involved in diverse cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, transformation, and tumor progression. A large range of cellular partners of c-Ski, including transcription factors, chromatin-remodeling molecules, tumor suppressors, and nuclear hormone receptors, has been identified. Moreover, numerous mechanisms have been described by which c-Ski regulates essential signaling pathways, e.g., the TGFβ pathway. In this review, we summarize the diverse roles attributed to c-Ski during normal development and in cancer progression and discuss future strategies to unravel further the complex nature of c-Ski actions in a context-dependent manner.
