Regulation of mutant TERT by BRAF V600E/MAP kinase pathway through FOS/GABP in human cancer

The mechanism of tumor progression robustly promoted by co-existing BRAF V600E and TERT promoter mutations is not known. Here, the authors show a mechanism of mutant TERT activation by BRAF V600E and MAPK pathways in which FOS, as a transcription factor of the GABPB promoter, functionally links the...
