Tumor Suppressors

Tumor suppressors are cellular genes involved in regulating cell division. Detection of DNA damage leads to a tumor suppressor protein halting cell division until the damage can be repaired. In cases where the damage is too severe to be repaired the tumor suppressor may trigger the cell to undergo apoptosis. Tumor suppressor proteins are important cancer targets as cells in which the tumor suppressors are not functioning properly may accumulate DNA damage that may eventually lead to cancer formation.
