The microproteome of cancer: From invisibility to relevance

Abstract excerpt

Recent findings have revealed that many genomic regions previously annotated as non-protein coding actually contain small open reading frames, smaller that 300 bp, that are transcribed and translated into evolutionary conserved microproteins. To date, only a small subset of them have been functionally characterized, but they play key functions in fundamental processes such as DNA repair, RNA processing and...
