Onco-Ribosomes—The Specialized Protein Factories Fueling Cancer
Introduction: A Revolution in Understanding Ribosomes For years, ribosomes—the cellular machines that produce proteins—were thought to be identical entities, working uniformly across different types of cells. However, research has uncovered a new and fascinating complexity: specialized ribosomes, with onco-ribosomes taking center stage in cancer biology. These specialized ribosomes selectively produce proteins that aid tumor survival […]
