Ng oestrogen and progesterone receptors and HER-2 gene amplification, account for ten?0 of all breast carcinomas in Asian and Western populations (Thike et al, 2010; De Ruijter et al, 2011).…
For synthesis of higher polyamines, putrescine controls the self-processing conversion of SAM decarboxylase (AMD1) proenzyme for the active enzyme (Pegg, 2009). Moreover, putrescine can bind an allosteric site in AMD1…
