Adenomatous polyposis coli

It is expressed in plethora of organs and tissues, e. g. cerebral cortex, bronchi or the gastrointestinal tract[2]. Germline truncation mutations of APC result in familial adenomatous polyposis, a hereditary form of colon cancer[3]. Additionally, loss of the C-terminal portion of APC is detected in about 80 % of sporadic colon cancers[4].

You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
