RIOX2 and lung carcinoma: Using the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing approach coupled with chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP) in human lung epithelial cell line BEAS 2B, lung cancer cell line A549, and breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231, an antagonistic effect of mdig on repressive histone trimethylation marks were revealed where mdig favored the open conformation of chromatin and permitted active gene transcription.
