Increased PHGDH expression promotes aberrant melanin accumulation

Background: Copy number gain of the D-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) gene, which encodes the first enzyme in serine biosynthesis, is found in some human cancers including a subset of melanomas. Methods: In order to study the effect of increased PHGDH expression in tissues in vivo, we gener...
