Even initiator methionine tRNA genes were interesting.
One or more individual iMet tRNA genes emerged as fitness hits in 293T and BJ-hTERT cells BUT none did in two glioblastoma models we tested. Somewhat unexpected given the unique role of iMet tRNAs in translation initiation.

Weird virus fact: Papillomaviruses can make their host cell immortal 🧟‍♂️ by activating telomerase (together with other mechanisms).
The viral protein E6 regulates and directly interacts with hTERT and telomeric DNA.

がん細胞は、テロメラーゼで寿命を延ばしていることが多い。

テロメライシンは、そのhTERTプロモーターを使って中で増えます。
増えると細胞が壊れる。食道がんでは放射線と一緒に使います。

壊れたあと、免疫が動くかもしれない、という話まで見ています。
なぜテロメライシンは、がん細胞の中で増えるのか
