The coexistence of copy number variations (CNVs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at a locus can result in distorted calculations of the significance in associating SNPs to disease.

For instance, ERK3 upregulates matrix metallopeptidases and thereby promotes cancer cell invasiveness, and it phosphorylates tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 2, thereby enhancing chemoresistance in lung cancer.

In the present study, we functionally and mechanistically characterized ERK3 L290P/V mutations, which are located within ERK3's kinase domain, and are shown to exist in several cancers including lung cancer and colon cancer.

Interestingly, a catalytically inactive ERK3 mutant was still capable of increasing migration and invasion, although to a lesser extent compared with WT ERK3, suggesting that ERK3 promotes cancer cell invasiveness by both kinase-dependent and kinase-independent mechanisms.
