However, no homozygous deletion of POLR2A was frequently inactivated by mutation or deletion in most human observed, consistent with the notion that POLR2A is essential for cell tumours1,2. A tremendous effort has been made to restore p53 survival. Analysis of TCGA and CCLE databases revealed that express- activity in cancer therapies3–7. However, no effective p53-based ion of POLR2A is tightly correlated with its gene copy number therapy has been successfully translated into clinical cancer treat- (Fig. 1d). This positive correlation was also validated in 20 pairs of ment owing to the complexity of p53 signalling. Here we dem- matched normal and CRC tissue samples and human CRC tissue onstrate that genomic deletion of TP53 frequently encompasses microarray (Fig. 1e and Extended Data Fig. 1). POLR2Aloss (hemizy- essential neighbouring genes, rendering cancer cells with hemizy- gous loss) cell lines expressed POLR2A proteins at significantly lower gous TP53 deletion vulnerable to further suppression of such levels than POLR2Aneutral cell lines (Fig. 1f–h). Unlike POLR2A, p53 genes. POLR2A is identified as such a gene that is almost always levels are determined by post-transcriptional and post-translational co-deleted with TP53 in human cancers. It encodes the largest and events16.

Our analysis of The Cancer copy numbers in human CRC (Extended Data Fig. 2 and Fig. 1h).

Perturbations in this process result in Eukaryotic DNA replication is tightly regulated genomic instability, mutagenesis, and diseases, such that cells replicate their entire genome once including malignancy.

For mammalian cells, this is no easy replication are subject to a plethora of revers- task since each proliferative somatic cell must ef- ible post-translational modifcations (PTMs) to ciently replicate approximately 6 billion base pairs provide a proper temporal and spatial control (in male cells) from roughly 250,000 replication of replication. Among these, modifcations origins scatered throughout the genome with involving the covalent atachment of the small each division cycle (Cadoret et al., 2008; Sequeira- protein ubiquitin or the small ubiquitin-like Mendes et al., 2009; Karnani et al., 2010).

How 2 complexity is generated, however, is uncertain. Since C.elegans and humans have 3 approximately the same number of genes, the explanation will depend on how genes are 4 used, rather than their absolute number.
