UBN1 - ubinuclein 1 Gene
Also Known as VT; VT4
Species: Homo sapiens
About UBN1
This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 22.1), bone marrow (RPKM 13.0) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
Cellular senescence is a hallmark of tumor suppression and tissue aging. Senescent cells contain domains of heterochromatin, called senescence-associated heterochromatin foci (SAHF), that repress proliferation-promoting genes. The protein encoded by this gene binds to proliferation-promoting genes and is required for SAHF formation, enhancing methylation of histone H3. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
