Moreover, Linker phosphorylation of Smad3 indirectly inhibits Smad3 C-terminal phosphorylation and subsequently suppresses pSmad3C signaling, The TβRI/pSmad3C and JNK/pSmad3L signals oppose each other, and the balance could shift from tumor suppression to carcinogenesis [16, 17]. The gene discussed is MAPK8; the disease is neoplasm.
