The Oncogene FactsBook

This text provides a definite guide to the facts about genes involved in cancer. This compendium summarizes the clinical association and molecular properties of all known oncogenes, and tumour suppressor genes, providing access to information on any particular facet of the gene or protein. One by one, data covering gene structure and location, mRNA size and half-life, mass, cellular and tissue location, protein structure and function, sequence, databank file name and accession number is clearly presented. This reference work should provide the understanding that should fuel further progess in this field, and should be a resource for research workers and clinicians, as well as senior undergraduates and pre-clinical students with an interest in carcinogenesis.
