Disease relevance of BCAS3

 

High impact information on BCAS3

  • We identified BCAS3 as a MTA1 chromatin target in a functional genomic screen [3].
  • Furthermore, we discovered that MTA1 is acetylated on lysine 626, and that this acetylation is necessary for a productive transcriptional recruitment of RNA polymerase II complex to the BCAS3 enhancer sequence [3].
  • Similar chimeric transcripts encoding portions of the MET oncogene and the BCAS3 gene also were overexpressed in EAs, suggesting that L1-5'ASP activation may occur at a broad level in primary EAs [4].
  • The BCAS4-BCAS3 fusion transcript was detected only in MCF7 cells, but the BCAS4 gene was also overexpressed in nine of 13 breast cancer cell lines [1].
  • Here, we report that BCAS3 overexpression in hormone receptor-positive premenopausal breast cancer seemed to be associated with impaired responses to tamoxifen [5].
