Scientists describe new mechanism for cancer development
American biologists have discovered a gene mutation that leads to the development of cancer.
They studied the new mechanism using the example of leukemia, but it most likely works in other cancers.
According to the study, a mutation combining two unrelated genes triggers a physical phase separation process, similar to that which occurs when two immiscible liquids, such as oil and water, combine. When phases are separated inside the cell nucleus, compartments are formed - cells with different physical properties that can contribute to the development of cancer.
According to Ria.ru, this discovery linking phase separation with cancer formation provides a fresh look at the complex, multi-stage process that connects biology and physics.
