A new study has suggested that changes to the structure of the protein histone H3.3 may play a key role in silencing genes that regulate cancer cell growth. The study was led by researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and published online this month in the journal emNature Communications/em. According to the authors, this is the first study to identify this protein as a key regulator in cellular senescence, a process in which cells stop multiplying. ...Saturday 22 November 2014
