Implicated genes include BTG2 in lymphoma, which is involved in the regulation of the G1/S transition of the cell cycle and has recently been implicated as a driver of blood cancers based on mutations in its coding sequence10, and ADAM19 in hemopoietic tumors, which has been implicated in the oncogenesis of breast42, prostate43, colorectal44 and ovarian45 cancers. This evidence concerns the gene BTG2 and cancer.
