Chromatin remodeling in replication‐uncoupled maintenance DNA methylation and chromosome stability: Insights from ICF syndrome studies
7 May 2021
Abstract excerpt
Immunodeficiency, centromeric instability, and facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome is characterized by frequent appearance of multiradial chromosomes, which are distinctive chromosome fusions that occur at hypomethylated pericentromeric regions comprising repetitive sequences, in activated lymphocytes. The syndrome is caused by mutations in DNMT3B, ZBTB24, CDCA7, or HELLS. De novo DNA methylation is likely defective...
