Abstract

NM23/NDPK proteins have been studied for their metastasis suppressor role but the molecular pathways involved in this process are not very vivid. Nucleotide binding and kinase activities of NM23 proteins implicated in anti-metastatic effects have been widely studied. In addition to these, transcriptional regulation adds another arm to the versatility of NM23 proteins that together with the other functions may contribute to better understanding of underlying mechanisms. In this review we discuss emerging reports describing the role of NM23 proteins in gene regulation and chromatin modulation in association with other factors or on their own.
