The TINCR ubiquitin-like microprotein is a tumor suppressor in squamous cell carcinoma
TINCR encodes a p53-regulated ubiquitin-like microprotein expressed in stratified epithelia. Tincr loss promotes UVB-induced skin carcinogenesis in mice and deletions and mutations in human squamous cell carcinoma support a tumor suppressor role.
