Oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are enriched in stop-loss mutations generating protein extensions
2026-03-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cancer genomes tend to accumulate a large number of mutations, and even rare mutations such as those causing the loss of a stop codon can be observed in a significant fraction of the tumors. Stop-loss mutations extend protein translation into the 3’ untranslated region (3’ UTR), generating altered proteins carrying extra amino acid sequences. These C-terminal extensions can potentially have cons...
