Abstract

Transcription factors are critical regulators of cell identity. Here, the authors use computational and functional genomic approaches to show an oncogenic role of PAX8 in renal cancer. Mechanistic dissection of PAX8 functions reveal its role in activating genes associated with metabolic pathways.
