MST1R (RON) is a receptor of the MET tyrosine kinase receptor family involved in several cancers such as pancreas, breast, ovary, colon, and stomach. Some studies have shown that overexpression of MST1R increases the migratory and invasive properties of cancer cells. The promoter region of the oncogene MST1R is enriched in guanine residues that can potentially form G-quadruplexes (G4s), as it was observed in other oncogenic promoters such as KRAS and c-MYC. There is abundant literature that link ...[more]
