Description for Tumor Suppressor Genes
Hardback. Explores the cell biology and biochemical function of the tumor suppressor genes, as well as its physiological role in vivo. This volume details the physical methods used to understand the function of tumor suppressor genes. It discusses in vivo approaches such as studies in yeast, Drosophilia, mice, and human tumors. Editor(s): El-Deiry, Wafik S. Series: Methods in Molecular Biology. Num Pages: 657 pages, biography. BIC Classification: MFN; MJCL; PDN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 254 x 178 x 36. Weight in Grams: 1385.
It has become clear that tumors result from excessive cell proliferation and a corresponding reduction in cell death caused by the successive accumulation of mutations in key regulatory target genes over time. During the 1980s, a number of oncogenes were characterized, whereas from the 1990s to the present, the emp- sis has shifted to tumor suppressor genes (TSGs). It has become clear that oncogenes and TSGs function in the same pathways, providing positive and negative growth regulatory activities. The signaling pathways controlled by these genes involve virtually every process in cell biology, including nuclear events, cell cycle, cell death, cytoskeletal, ... Read more
