the myc hubsite, which is supported by the national library of medicine, is a publicly available site that provides timely reviews on the myc cancer gene and links to pubmed on the latest publications concerning myc. the myc gene produces a protein that regulates the expression of other genes. this site also provides a database on the target genes that are regulated by the myc protein. the understanding of these target genes is fundamental for our understanding of how the myc cancer gene plays such a prominent role in a variety of commonly occurring human cancers, such as blood, brain, breast, colon, lung, pancreatic and prostate cancer.
