Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer related death worldwide. In the United States alone, over 120,000 deaths were caused by lung cancer in 2024<ref>https://www.cancer.org/content/dam/cancer-org/research/cancer-facts-and-statistics/annual-cancer-facts-and-figures/2024/2024-cancer-facts-and-figures-acs.pdf</ref>. Non small cell lung cancer make up approximately 84% of all lung cancer cases, and of these lung adenocarcinoma accounts for about 65%<ref>10.1001/jamaoncol.2021.4932</ref>. In lung adenocarcinoma, ''STK11'' is the third most commonly mutated gene, behind only ''KRAS'' and ''p53''<ref>10.1091/mbc.E15-08-0569.</ref>. | Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer related death worldwide.

STK11 exists in a <scene name='10/1078094/ComplexLabeled/1'>Hetertrimeric complex</scene> with the pseudokinase STRADα, and the scaffolding protein Mo25. This complex is essential for both proper kinase activity and proper localization. <ref>10.1038/sj.emboj.7600110</ref><sup>, </sup> <ref>10.1093/emboj/cdg490</ref> |
