Abstract excerpt
Human chromosome 4 was previously shown to elicit features of senescence when introduced into cell lines that map to complementation group B for senescence, including HeLa cells. Subsequently, a DNA segment encoding the pseudogene Mortality Factor 4 (MORF4) was shown to reproduce some of the effects of the intact chromosome 4 and was suggested to be a candidate mortality gene. We have identified multiple MORF4...
