  eLife assessment

  The manuscript describes a fundamental study of the atypical MAPK, ERK3, in the activation of RhoGTPase Cdc42 and the formation of actin-rich protrusions and cell migration. The results show that ERK3 is required for the motility of tumor cells in vivo, providing a new target for fighting metastasis.
