    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for detecting a colon cancer in a human, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a biological sample from the human; and (b) detecting the level of a ATAD2 nucleic acid or a ATAD2 protein in the biological sample, relative to the level of the ATAD2 nucleic acid or the ATAD2 protein in a control sample from a normal human, wherein an increased level of the ATAD2 nucleic acid or the ATAD2 protein in the biological sample compared to the control sample indicates that the human has the colon cancer. The biomarker of this invention was identified using normal colon tissue, colon cancer tissue and metastatic cancer tissue derived from a colon cancer patient. Therefore, the accuracy and reliability of the present biomarker for colon cancer and/or metastasis are much more significantly improved. In addition, the biomarker of this invention permits to identify and predict colon cancer or metastasis in an accurate manner.
