Abstract excerpt
Cell proliferation is an important factor in various developmental processes in tissue morphogenesis, and is strictly regulated spatiotemporally. jumonji (jmj) deficient mice with a C3H/He background show hyperproliferation of cardiac myocytes and die probably of the phenotype around embryonic day 11.5. Analyses of the abnormalities revealed that repression of cyclin D1 expression by jmj is necessary for...
