Although great emphasis has been placed on the study of tumor-promoting oncogenes, the existence of tumor suppressing genes has long been suspected [53, 78,126]. In distinction to oncogenes, the inactivation of these'cancer suppressor'genes by mutation would contribute to tumor formation. In a normal diploid cell containing two copies of a particular tumor suppressor gene, two mutations would be required to completely inactivate it and release its constraint on cell growth.
