KRAS/RAF1 Regulation of β-Catenin Requires the Activity of RAC1

(A and B) SW-480 cells transfected with vehicle or myc-tagged ([A], S191A or S605A) or flag-tagged ([B], S552A or S675A) β-catenin mutants were stained for DNA (magenta) and α-myc ([A], green) or α-flag ([B], green).

(C) SW-480 cells were transfected with RAC1-directed siRNA, DN-RAC1, and DN-Cdc42 or treated with the RAC1-specific inhibitor NSC23766 and stained for DNA (magenta) and β-catenin (green).

(D) SW-480 cells were subjected to an MTT assay (^*p < 0.05 versus DMSO; error bars, SEM).

(E) SW-480 cells were transfected with vehicle, KRAS^G12V-targeted siRNA, RAF1 siRNA, or DN-MEK1 and subjected to a RAC1 activity assay. The western blot was probed for RAC1 (top). Control lysates were probed for total RAC1 (bottom).

(F) SW-480 cells treated as above were stained for phospho-cJun.

(G) Human 293 cells transfected with constitutively active RAC1 and treated with PGE₂ or DMSO were stained for DNA (magenta) and β-catenin (green).

All images were captured using the same exposure and are representative of at least three independent experiments. Scale bar, 10 μm.
