  2. The findings strengthen the importance of NAA40 to maintain colorectal cancer cell growth. We show that NAA40 oncogenic properties stimulate the global levels of H4R3me2s by transcriptionally activating PRMT5 methyltransferase which in turn modulates the expression of key downstream cancer-related genes.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
