Researchers from the University of Cape Town's (UCT) Scientific Computing Research Unit (SCRU) have uncovered a critical molecular "switch" that drives the formation of cancer-associated antigens. The study, published in Nature Communications, details how the spatial relocation of enzymes within a cell's internal machinery leads to the aberrant "sugar coating" of proteins, a hallmark of cancer progression.
