Epigenetic instability caused by absence of CIZ1 drives transformation during quiescence cycles
Abstract Background Cip1-interacting zinc finger protein 1 (CIZ1) forms RNA-dependent protein assemblies that stabilise epigenetic state, notable at the inactive X chromosome in females. CIZ1 has been linked with a range of human cancers and in mice genetic deletion of CIZ1 manifests as hyperprolife...
