Researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine have identified a group of proteins that mutate in one fifth of all human cancers. The finding suggests that the proteins, which are members of a protein complex that affects how DNA is packaged in cells, work to suppress the development of tumors in many types of tissues. The broad reach of the effect of mutations in the complex, called BAF, rivals that of another well-known tumor suppressor called ...Saturday, 11 May 2013
Group of Proteins That Mutate in a Fifth of Human Cancers Identified
Researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine have identified a group of proteins that mutate in one fifth of all human cancers. The finding suggests that the proteins, which are members of a protein complex that affects how DNA is packaged in cells, work to suppress the development of tumors in many types of tissues. The broad reach of the effect of mutations in the complex, called BAF, rivals that of another well-known tumor suppressor called ...
