Vedclass · Answer

(D) Cellular oncogenes $(c-onc)$ or proto-oncogenes have been identified in normal cells,which,when activated under certain conditions,could lead to oncogenic transformation of the cells.Cancer-causing viruses,called oncogenic viruses,contain genes known as viral oncogenes.$1$. Inducer gene: $A$ molecule that regulates gene expression.$2$. Jumping genes: Genes that can change their position within the genome (transposons).$3$. Structural gene: Genes that code for any $RNA$ or protein product other than a regulatory protein.Therefore,oncogenes are specifically associated with the transformation of normal cells into cancerous cells.
