Abstract:Protein synthesis is often dysregulated in cancer, highlighting the regulatory mechanisms of translation as potential targets for cancer treatment. With more than 140 chemical modifications of RNA, the epitranscriptome is a central mechanism in regulating protein synthesis. Remarkably, the epitranscriptome is often altered in cancerous tumors and under stress conditions such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and anti-tumor therapies. For instance, N-acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10), the enzyme responsible for acety… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
