Mutational Alterations of DNA Methylation-related Genes CTCF, ZFP57, and ATF7IP Genes in Colon Cancers.

Abstract excerpt

Deregulations of DNA-methylation-related genes are common in cancers, but frameshift mutation status in colon cancer (CC) is unknown. Our study aims to assess whether CTCF, ZFP57, and ATF7IP genes in this category are mutated in CC. CTCF, ZFP57, and ATF7IP genes have repeat coding sequences, which are frequently deleted or duplicated in CC, harboring the phenotype of unstable or high microsatellite instability...
