Furthermore, overexpression of the T286D phosphomimic form of CaMKII further significantly enhanced the ability of both the invasive MDA-MB-231 (Fig. 6A), and the non-invasive MCF-7 (Fig. 6B) breast cancer cells to grow in a semi-solid medium, when compared to the WT and T286V phosphonull forms of CaMKII. This evidence concerns the gene CAMK2G and breast cancer.
