I read the Neoplasia from Robbin's Pathology. I know everybody knows about p53 oncogene and about Rb (expecially from Goljan's Path), but do we have to know all those other genes (sis, mad, max etc)? I mean, do we have to know their mechanism of action and in what tumors there are mutations in those genes? Thank you

these questions are appearing more and more frequently on the step 1 - you should know not only their mechanisms of action and in the development of which tumors they are implicated, but also concrete mutations leading to the inactivation of antioncogenes, or activation of oncogenes, i.e. on which chromosomes they are located. by the way, p53 isn't oncogene, it's antioncogene.
