The splicing factor SRSF1 is an oncoprotein that is upregulated in human tumors, including breast cancer tumors. New in vitro and in vivo analyses reveal SRSF1's ability to transform human mammary epithelial cells and promote mammary gland tumorigenesis in a mouse model by regulating apoptosis and proliferation and cooperating with Myc while also uncovering potential downstream therapeutic targets.
