Name ERCC6
Type histone modification
Species Homo sapiens
Tissue lens anterior capsule membrane

Pro/Anti NA
Funtion Description mRNA and protein expression of ERCC6 in lens tissue (LECs) were lower in ARNCs than those in the controls. This reduction corresponded to methylation of a CpG site at the ERCC6 promoter and histone modifications (methylation and acetylation) nearby this s
