Abstract:Melanoma antigen (MAGE) genes encode for a family of proteins that share a common MAGE homology domain. These genes are conserved in eukaryotes, and have been linked to a variety of cellular and developmental processes including ubiquitination and oncogenesis in cancer. Current knowledge on the MAGE family of proteins mainly comes from the analysis of yeast and human cell lines, and their functions have not been reported at an organismal level in animals. C. elegans, only encodes one known MAGE gene member, ma… 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.
