In the present study, DNMT2/TRDMT1 gene knockout-mediated effects were investigated during doxorubicin (DOX)-induced ER stress and PERK-, IRE1- and ATF6-orchestrated UPR in four genetically different cellular models of cancer (breast and cervical cancer, osteosarcoma and glioblastoma cells). The gene discussed is TRDMT1; the disease is cancer.
