    GlossaryTumor Suppressor Protein

    prevents uncontrolled cell growth and tumor formation

    A Tumor Suppressor Protein is a type of protein that helps regulate cell growth and division, preventing cells from growing uncontrollably and forming tumors. These proteins, often produced by tumor suppressor genes, act as the body's natural defense against cancer by repairing DNA damage or initiating cell death if the damage is irreparable.
