| 21. | Therefore, this gene may be a myeloid leukemia tumor suppressor gene.
|
| 22. | Nonetheless, it is suspected to act as a tumor suppressor gene.
|
| 23. | Hypermethylation of tumor suppressor gene promoter regions can result in silencing of those genes.
|
| 24. | More work is being done to identify the suppressor genes and how they work.
|
| 25. | Inactivation of one allele of some tumor suppressor genes is sufficient to cause tumors.
|
| 26. | Opposite of this is the methylation of tumor suppressor genes.
|
| 27. | PBRM1 is a tumor suppressor gene in many cancer subtypes.
|
| 28. | If oncogenes and suppressor genes are damaged, the proteins they make won't work correctly.
|
| 29. | For example, tumor suppressor genes help keep cancer from developing.
|
| 30. | Scientists call them tumor suppressor genes because the genes prevent cells from becoming malignant.
