Abstract

Taking the Myc: Despite nearly 30 years of research into the mechanisms by which Myc oncogene dysregulation contributes to tumorigenesis, there are still no effective therapies that inhibit Myc activity. Kessler et al. (p. 348 , published online 8 December; see the Perspective by Evan ) searched for gene products that support Myc-driven tumorigenesis. One pharmacologically tractable target that emerged from the screen was the SUMO-activating enzyme complex SAE1/2, which catalyzes a posttranslational modification (SUMOylation) that alters protein behavior and function. SUMOylation was found to control the Myc transcriptional response, and its inhibition caused mitotic defects and apoptosis in Myc-dependent breast cancer cells.

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.
