Need to stay tuned to see if these mutations can generate targetable neoantigens in tricky low-TMB cancers
Mechanistic insights into MET exon 14 skipping mutations and their role in tumor progression
The MET receptor tyrosine kinase is a pivotal regulator of cellular survival, motility, and proliferation. Mutations leading to skipping of exon 14 (METΔex14) within the juxtamembrane domain of MET im...

Why does MET exon 14 skipping matter? It is more than a mere oncogenic mutation!😱🫁

Hot off the @biochemsoc.bsky.social press where we discuss met exon 14 and beyond

Can blocking “jumping genes” treat diseases and aging?

The first clinical trials are testing inhibitors of transposons, #DNA sequences that hop around the genome on their own. scim.ag/4cHvdC4
