Expression of <i>BORIS</i> in melanoma: Lack of association with <i>MAGE‐A1</i> activation
23 Oct 2007
Abstract excerpt
Several genes with specific expression in germ cells show aberrant activation in different types of tumors. These genes, termed cancer-germline (CG) genes, encode tumor-specific antigens, which represent potential targets for therapeutic vaccination against cancer. The germline-specific gene BORIS (Brother Of the Regulator of Imprinted Sites), which encodes an 11-zinc-fingers transcriptional regulator, was...
