Melanoma addiction to the long non-coding RNA SAMMSON

A known oncogene, MITF , resides in a region of chromosome 3 that is amplified in melanomas and associated with poor prognosis; now, a long non-coding RNA gene, SAMMSON , is shown to also lie in this region, to also act as a melanoma-specific survival oncogene, and to be a promising therapeutic targ...
