The role of histone acetylation in SMN gene expression

16 Mar 2005

Abstract excerpt

Increasing survival motor neuron 2 (SMN2) gene expression may be an effective strategy for the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have been shown to increase SMN transcript and protein levels, but the specific role of histone acetylation in regulating SMN gene expression has not been explored. Using chromatin immunopreciptation, we investigated the levels of...
