SMYD3 drives cell cycle and epithelial-mesenchymal transition pathways through dual gene transcriptional repression and activation in HPV-negative head and neck cancer
Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV)-negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer type in the world and is associated with an overall poor prognosis.The protein methyltransferase SET and MYND domain-containing 3 (SMYD3), which trimethylates lovesense 3 H3K4, activates gene transcription and enhances several
