For the first time, Australian researchers from Children's Cancer Institute have discovered that a gene called JMJD6 plays an important role in the most aggressive form of the disease.

The JMJD6 gene located at chromosome 17qter is one of the few histone modification genes located within the 17q21-ter region.. In datasets of tissues from neuroblastoma patients, analyses ...

For the first time, Australian researchers from Children's Cancer Institute have discovered that a gene called JMJD6 plays an important role in the most aggressive form of the disease.

The finding shows that the enzyme, termed Jmjd6, directly intervenes in the process in which the DNA of our genes is ‘cut and pasted’ into instructions for the creation of specific proteins ...
