Abstract excerpt
The CpG island of GADD45G was identified as a target sequence during the identification of hypermethylated genes using methylation-sensitive representational difference analysis combined with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine demethylation. Located at the commonly deleted region 9q22, GADD45G is a member of the DNA damage-inducible gene family. In response to stress shock, GADD45G inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis....
