| Title: | Obscure DNA sequences unveil a new cancer target |
| Abstract: | Curiosity-driven and fundamental discovery science must be justified in its importance to human health and translational potential for practical applications and cures. However, many groundbreaking discoveries occur through the freedom to ask fundamental questions — the how and why — without knowing where they lead. Presented here is an example of a clinical target that emerged from a seemingly simple question in chromosome biology. © Springer Nature America, Inc. 2024. |
