NSW Big Ideas Oncology Seminar Series

A protein-centric view of cancer biology. This presentation, from Professor Roger Reddel, will argue the case for the utility of a protein-centric view of cancer biology. A cancer’s behaviour, including its aggressiveness and its response to treatments, is mostly determined by its proteome, which may be regarded as using DNA as its spare parts manufacturing information repository for the replacement of worn-out proteins and to enable adjustment of protein levels in response to changes in its external environment.
