Nek4 Regulates Entry into Replicative Senescence and the Response to DNA Damage in Human Fibroblasts
31 Jul 2012
Abstract excerpt
When explanted into culture, normal human cells exhibit a finite number of cell divisions before entering a proliferative arrest termed replicative senescence. To identify genes essential for entry into replicative senescence, we performed an RNA interference (RNAi)-based loss-of-function screen and found that suppression of the Never in Mitosis Gene A (NIMA)-related protein kinase gene NEK4 disrupted timely...
