Hidden proteins encoded by non-canonical open reading frames: A review.
A concise summary of the origin, discovery methods, and classification of non-canonical ORFs offers insights into the origins and functions of non-canonical ORF-encoded peptides from an evolutionary perspective, while also exploring the biological functions and regulatory mechanisms of these non-canonical ORF-encoded hidden proteins in tumorigenesis and progression.
