Polycomb silencers control cell fate, development and cancer

Key Points Epigenetic gene silencing is an important mechanism for the loss of gene function and collaborates with genetic mutation in the initiation and progression of human cancer. Polycomb group (PcG) proteins regulate epigenetically mediated transcriptional silencing. They are involved in the ma...
