A mouse fibroblast with altered RNF144B expression divides without correctly grouping chromosomes (stained blue), resulting in aberrant cells. Credit: UPF Research led by the Cancer Biology Laboratory of the Department of Medicine and Life Sciences (MELIS) at Pompeu Fabra University, in collaboration with the Center for Genomic Regulation and the Murcian Institute of Biosanitary Research, has managed to identify the function of the RNF144B gene that, under normal conditions, is involved in controlling cell division and genomic integrity. These functions are lost when the expression of this gene is insufficient, Read More
