BRD4 binding sites in transformed fibroblasts

ABSTRACT: Analysis of BRD4 ChIP-seq data of two types of human transformed fibroblasts (WT and HGPS) to identify specific and common binding sites for BRD4. Transformed cell lines were obtained by retroviral introduction of TERT (T), V12-HRAS (R) and SV40 large and small T antigens (S) of primary skin fibroblasts for HGPS patients (TRS-HGPS) and age-matched control wild-type individuals (TRS-WT) Abstract: Advanced age and DNA damage accumulation are strong risk factors for cancer. The premature-aging disorder Hutchinson Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) provides a unique opportunity to study the interplay between DNA damage and aging-associated tumor mechanisms, since HGPS patients do not develop tumors despite elevated levels of DNA damage. Here, we have used HGPS patient cells to identify a protec
