What drives cancer cells to grow and divide uncontrollably and escape cell death? ... Proto-oncogenes are a group of genes that cause normal cells to become cancerous when they are mutated (Adamson, 1987; Weinstein & Joe, 2006). Mutations in proto-oncogenes are ...

Figure 1. Proto-oncogenes can become oncogenes. Proto-oncogenes encode for normal cellular proteins involved in growth signalling pathways. When these genes become mutated as a result of exposure to chemicals, radiation, or other carcinogens, these genes are called oncogenes.

Genes that participate in any one of the steps above can become oncogenes if: ... It is estimated that fully 1% of the 25,000 or so genes in the human genome are proto-oncogenes.

Gain-of-Function Mutations Convert Proto-Oncogenes into Oncogenes ... Although these cells survive infection, they become permanently transformed because the viral DNA contains one or more oncogenes. For example, many warts and other benign tumors of epithelial cells are caused by the DNA-containing papillomaviruses.
