dMyc provides growing cells with a competitive advantage. Two models that can explain the competitive advantage of dMyc-expressing cells are: (1) that cells expressing more dMyc deprive their neighbors of growth and/or survival factors and (2) that dMyc expressing cells induce a short-range signal that kills nearby cells that express less dMyc.
