Identification of Mutations Linked to Neuroblastoma May Lead to New Therapeutic Approach

Development of neuroblastoma, the most common form of childhood cancer, has been linked to defects in two genes: an over expressed oncogene and an under expressed tumor suppressor gene. More...

Image: The toxins normally bind very strongly to the antitoxins and are thus not only inactive, but also prevent the production of more toxin from the information encoded in the bacterial DNA. During the dormant state, however, the antitoxins are degraded, and the toxins released (step 1). The free toxins now bind to unoccupied antitoxins on DNA within the area encoding the toxin-antitoxin couple (step 2). Binding increasing amounts of toxin eventually leads to the release of the molecules from the gene (steps 3 and 4) and finally to new toxin production (Photo courtesy of Ditlev E. Brodersen).
