Recent work from Zhu et al. (2021) reveals that extrachromosomal DNA circles harboring enhancers can serve as mobile regulatory elements that interact with chromosomal oncogenes, stimulating high-level gene activity and contributing to tumor heterogeneity and cancer progression.
最近,Zhu 等人(2021)的研究揭示了含有增强子的染色体外 DNA 环可以作为可移动的调节元件,与染色体癌基因相互作用,刺激高水平的基因活性,并导致肿瘤异质性和癌症进展。
