SHOC2 phosphatase-dependent RAF dimerization mediates resistance to MEK inhibition in RAS-mutant cancers
Targeted inhibition of the ERK-MAPK pathway is challenged by the development of resistance and toxicity. Here, the authors show that SHOC2 genetic inhibition impairs lung tumour development and improves MEK inhibitor efficacy in RAS- and EGFR-mutant cells.
