BubR1 notes 4-28-13

2015-01-13

azim58 - BubR1 notes 4-28-13 Too much, on the other hand, might be a good thing. In work published today in Nature Cell Biology, the biologists report that genetically engineered mice that make extra BubR1 are less prone to cancer. For example, they found that when they exposed normal mice to a chemical that causes lung and skin tumors, all of them got cancer. But only 33% of those overexpressing BubR1 at high levels did. The animals that overexpressed BubR1 at high levels also lived 15% longer than controls, on average.
