The Heterochromatin protein 1 is a master regulator in RNA splicing precision deficient in ulcerative colitis
2020-12-30
Abstract excerpt
Defects in RNA splicing have been linked to numerous human disorders, but remain poorly explored in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Here, we report that, in the gut epithelium of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), the expression of the chromatin and alternative splicing regulator HP1γ is strongly reduced. Accordingly, inactivation of the HP1γ gene in the mouse gut triggered several IBD-like traits, including...
