Breakthrough discovery unveils master switches in colon cancer

sciencedaily.com — “Researchers have identified a new mechanism by which colon cancer develops. By focusing on segments of DNA located between genes, or so-called “junk DNA,” the team has discovered a set of master switches, i.e., gene enhancer elements, that turn “on and off” key genes whose altered expression is defining for colon cancers.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
