Proto-Oncogenes and Oncogenes, Extended

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

Proto-oncogenes and oncogenes are homed at Bio 0895; they illustrate gene-expression regulation failing, not a new definition.

Show

A proto-oncogene, per Bio 0895, becomes an oncogene when a mutation escapes this unit's regulatory controls and locks its regulator active.

Watch for

This entry extends Bio 0895 into this unit's regulation framework — it does not relock or restate that definition.
