This discovery could eradicate cancers more effectively and
prevent relapses
1. Scientists at
A*STAR have discovered an enzyme, Wip1 phosphatase, as a potential target to
weed out the progression of cancer. Although studies in the past have revealed
that this enzyme plays a critical role in regulating the budding of tumours,
scientists have for the first time unearthed a mechanism for its mode of
action.
