PARP4 interacts with hnRNPM to regulate splicing during lung cancer progression

The identification of cancer driver genes from sequencing data has been crucial in deepening our understanding of tumor biology and expanding targeted therapy options. However, apart from the most commonly altered genes, the mechanisms underlying the contribution of other mutations to cancer acquisition remain understudied. Leveraging on our whole-exome sequencing of the largest Asian lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cohort (n = 302), we now functionally assess the mechanistic role of a novel driver, PARP4.
