The signaling adaptor p62 is a multidomain protein implicated in the activation of the
transcription factor NF-κB. Recent findings link p62 activity to the extrinsic apoptosis
pathway, and Mathew et al.(2009) now show that the modulation of p62 by autophagy is a
key factor in tumorigenesis. These findings place p62 at critical decision points that control
cell death and survival.
