Considering the general role of BRD7 as a tumor suppressor, its regulation of the G1-S transition in NPC cells, and involvement in nutrient-sensing pathways, it is possible that BRD7 participates in the late G1 metabolic checkpoints mediated by essential amino acids, glutamine, and mTOR [117]. The gene discussed is BRD7; the disease is nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
