Why is the Study of Dimeric Protein Complexes Important in Cancer Research?
Understanding the structure and function of dimeric protein complexes can provide insights into the mechanisms of [tumorigenesis](). This knowledge is vital for the development of targeted therapies that can disrupt abnormal protein interactions. For instance, drugs like [Imatinib]() target the BCR-ABL dimeric complex in chronic myeloid leukemia, showcasing the therapeutic potential of targeting these complexes.
