A gene expression signature identifying transient DNMT1 depletion as a causal factor of cancer-germline gene activation in melanoma

BACKGROUND: Many human tumors show aberrant activation of a group of germline-specific genes, termed cancer-germline (CG) genes, several of which appear to exert oncogenic functions. Although activation of CG genes in tumors has been linked to promoter DNA demethylation, the mechanisms underlying th...
