Polycomb Mediated Epigenetic Silencing and Replication Timing at the INK4a/ARF Locus during Senescence | PLOS ONE
When cells enter senescence the binding to RD of both PRC1 and PRC2 complexes is lost leading to a decreased level of histone ... H3K27 trimethylation (H3K27me3). This loss is accompanied with an increased expression of the histone demethylase Jmjd3 and ...
