DNA replication stress: a source of APOBEC3B expression in breast cancer

APOBEC cytidine deaminases have been implicated as major contributors to the mutation burden in many cancers on the basis of their mutational signature. A new experimental study sheds light on the inciting factors, linking APOBEC3B expression to oncogene- and drug-induced replication stress.
