MYC: Connecting selective transcriptional control to global RNA production

Kress, Theresia R., Sabò, Arianna, Amati, Bruno·2015·Nature reviews. Cancer

Abstract

Two opposing models have been proposed to describe the function of the MYC oncoprotein in shaping cellular transcriptomes: one posits that MYC amplifies transcription at all active loci; the other that MYC differentially controls discrete sets of genes, the products of which affect global transcript levels. Here, we argue that differential gene regulation by MYC is the sole unifying model that is consistent with all available data. Among other effects, MYC endows cells with physiological and metabolic changes that have the potential to feed back on global RNA production, processing and turnover. The field is progressing steadily towards a full characterization of the MYC-regulated genes and pathways that mediate these biological effects and - by the same token - endow MYC with its pervasive oncogenic potential.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Endurance-oriented stimuli may bias translational machinery toward oxidative metabolism and mitochondrial adaptation, whereas resistance exercise may favor ribosomal configurations more suitable for myofibrillar accretion, offering one explanation for the interference effect.

    “This could offer one explanation for the interference effect observed during concurrent training: rather than entirely suppressing ribosome biogenesis, endurance-oriented stimuli may bias translational machinery toward proteins involved in oxidative metabolism and mitochondrial adaptation, whereas resistance exercise may favor ribosomal configurations more suitable for myofibrillar accretion [188,”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
