A human somatic cell culture system for modelling gene silencing by transcriptional interference
Transcriptional interference and transcription through regulatory elements (transcriptional read-through) are implicated in gene silencing and the establishment of DNA methylation. Transcriptional read-through is needed to seed DNA methylation at imprinted genes in the germ line and can lead to aber...
