SNX5 encodes sorting nexin 5, an endosomal protein involved in viral replication and entry and virus‐induced autophagy [41] and may play an oncogenic role in SCC of head and neck [42] by modulating the degradation of oncogenic proteins such as c‐Myc and Cyclin‐E1 whereas SNORD17 encodes a small nucleolar RNA that is reported to inactivate p53 and enhance disease progression in hepatocellular carcinoma [43], another virally‐induced cancer. The gene discussed is MYC; the disease is cancer.
