The protein encoded by the TES gene is a negative regulator of cell growth and may also function as a tumour suppressor (Steponaitis et al., 2016), as the loss of TES expression is frequently documented in various cancers (Z, 2014; Mcfarlane, 2001; Tatarelli, Linnenbach, Mimori, & Croce, 2000; Weeks, Ludgate, Lemée, & Morison, 2016; Zhong, Zhang, & Yin, 2015). Here, TES is linked to cancer.
