Abstract

Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are epigenetic regulatory factors that maintain the repression of target gene expression through histone modification. PcG proteins control the repression of genes that regulate differentiation and the cell cycle in the maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). Moreover, abnormalities in expression level and mutations in PcG genes have been reported in various types of cancer, including hematological malignancies. In this review, we present an overview of the roles of PcG proteins in HSC and various types of hematological malignancies.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
