Abstract excerpt
Aberrant telomerase reactivation in differentiated cells represents a major event in oncogenic transformation. Recurrent somatic mutations in the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter region, predominantly localized to two nucleotide positions, are highly prevalent in many cancer types. Both mutations create novel consensus E26 transformation-specific (ETS) motifs and are associated with...
