Deskripsi

In breast cancer GATA3 is known to be frequently mutated, but the function of these mutations is unclear. Here, the authors utilise CRISPR-Cas9 to model frame-shift mutations in zinc finger 2 of GATA3, highlighting that GATA3 mutation can have gain- or loss-of function effects in breast cancer.
