DEK-NUP214 increases the expression of mTOR. A. Phosphorylated and total protein levels for components of the mTOR signaling pathway in U937 cells one day after seeding, showing increased levels of mTOR and activation of the mTORC1 substrate p70S6K without activation of the mTORC2 substrate Akt. α-tubulin is used as an equal loading control. Images show one representative experiment out of three. B. Protein abundance levels of cells expressing DEK-NUP214, relative to control cells. The mean of three experiments, error bars represent S.E.M. C. Expression of the mTOR gene in DEK-NUP214 cells relative to control cells. The mean of three experiments, error bars represent S.E.M.
