JCI Interlocking host and viral cis-regulatory networks drive Merkel cell carcinoma
Over 15% of cancers worldwide are caused by viruses. Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) is the most recently discovered human oncovirus and is the only polyomavirus that drives malignant tumors in humans. Here, we show that MCPyV+ Merkel cell carcinoma is defined by neuroendocrine-lineage core regulatory (CR) transcription factors (TFs) (ATOH1, INSM1, ISL1, LHX3, POU4F3, and SOX2) that were essential for tumor survival and that co-bound chromatin …
