Metastasis is the primary culprit behind cancer-related fatalities in multiple cancer types, including prostate cancer. Despite great advances, the precise mechanisms underlying prostate cancer metastasis are far from complete. By using a transgenic mouse prostate cancer model (TRAMP) with and without Phf8 knockout, we have identified a crucial role of PHF8 in prostate cancer metastasis.

Conventional experimental techniques for identifying essential genes are resource-intensive and time-consuming, and the accuracy of current machine learning models needs further enhancement. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a robust computational model to accurately predict essential genes.
