CpG site methylation in CRYAA promoter affect transcription factor Sp1 binding in human lens epithelial cells
BACKGROUND: Age-related cataract (ARC) is the leading cause of visual impairment worldwide, and α-crystallin (CRYAA) is the predominant structural protein involved in the maintenance of lens clarity and refractive properties. We previously demonstrated that CRYAA genes undergo epigenetic repression...
