MISCOPYING IS A CAUSE OF CANCER

In recent years researchers cancer researches. It was dis-
working on cancer found out covered that the miscoding of
that misproduction of proteins a single digit of a special
within the cell has an impor- 5000-digit gene existing in the
tant role in the formation of DNA of the cells of this region
cancer. During the copying of damaged the cell. 19 The pro-
the DNA, miscopied genes teins that will be produced by
cause the production of wrong these flawed genes do harm
proteins. This discovery first to the cell rather than benefit-
came out during the bladder ting it.

With the copying of the relevant letters on the DNA strand,
the mRNA (messenger RNA) sequence is made. This strand

functions as a copy of the DNA to carry the data of the protein
to be produced.
Sometimes, during the transcription process, the RNA
polymerase enzyme copies the entire gene from beginning to
end, including the unnecessary codes for this specific gene
called introns. Then, the protein complex called spliceosome
enzymes arrive to bend the unnecessary codes in a ring form
