Genetic fusions favor tumorigenesis through degron loss in oncogenes

The impact of genetic fusions on degrons, which are motifs for ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation, has not been fully explored. Here, the authors analyse fusion genes affecting degrons in pan-cancer genomics data, validate their functional impact and find enrichment for both internal and C-termi...

Sumario:The impact of genetic fusions on degrons, which are motifs for ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation, has not been fully explored. Here, the authors analyse fusion genes affecting degrons in pan-cancer genomics data, validate their functional impact and find enrichment for both internal and C-terminal degron losses.
