Abstract excerpt
Rsf-1 (HBXAP) has been reported as an amplified gene in human cancer, including the highly aggressive ovarian serous carcinoma. Rsf-1 protein interacts with SNF2H to form an ISWI chromatin remodeling complex, RSF. In this study, we investigated the functional role of Rsf-1 by observing phenotypes after expressing it in nontransformed cells. Acute expression of Rsf-1 resulted in DNA damage as evidenced by DNA...
