Which part of the bacteriophage was injected into the bacterial cell?

Studies have noted an increase in the expression level of specific integrin proteins in tumor cells. Which type of integrins, those typically associated with hemi-desmosomes or those associated with focal adhesions, would you predict would confer an advantage in adopting the migratory behavior associated with metastasis? Briefly explain your reasoning.

In one study of certain classes of metastatic gastric (stomach) and breast cancer tumors, cells were observed to have a much higher expression of components of the ARP 2/3 complex than is typical of normal epithelial cells from these organs. Why might elevated levels of ARP 2/3 make it more likely that cells from these tumors would be better able to adopt the migratory behavior associated with metastasis? (Your answer should incorporate information on the normal role of ARP 2/3.)
