(I) Proposed mechanism of MGA mediated tumor suppressive effects: MGA acts as a scaffold and stabilizes atypical PRC1.6 members, including L3MBTL2. Under normal conditions, this results in the repression or transcriptional attenuation of thousands of genes. During malignant progression, perturbation of MGA expression leads to the upregulation of growth-promoting and pro-invasive PRC1.6, MYC, and E2F targets in a tissue-specific manner.
