A Pan-Cancer Landscape Analysis Reveals a Subset of Endometrial Stromal and Pediatric Tumors Defined by Internal Tandem Duplications of BCOR
31 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) regulates epigenetic silencing and is manifestly linked to rare cancer types. The X-linked BCOR gene (BCL-6 Corepressor) is a member of the PRC1 complex and potentiates transcriptional repression through BCL6 binding of PRC1. Accumulating evidence suggests that internal tandem duplications (ITD) of BCOR are oncogenic drivers in a subset of pediatric sarcomas...
