How are Dimeric Protein Complexes Related to Cancer?
In the context of cancer, dimeric protein complexes are particularly significant as they are often involved in the regulation of cell growth, apoptosis, and differentiation. Abnormalities in these complexes can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation and tumor development. For example, [Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs)]() often function as dimeric complexes and are frequently mutated or overexpressed in various cancers.
