Cell Senescence Entries for ING2

Cell Types
Lung fibroblast
Cell Lines
MRC-5
Cancer Cell?
No
Method
Knockout, Overexpression
Type of senescence
Replicative
Senescence Effect
Induces
Observations
Overexpression of ING2 induced cellular senescence in young fibroblasts in a p53-dependent manner. In contrast, RNA interference of ING2 delayed the onset of senescence.

    ING2 Gene Information

    HGNC symbol
    ING2 
    Aliases
    ING1L; p33ING2 
    Common name
    inhibitor of growth family member 2 
    Entrez Id
    3622
    Description
    This gene is a member of the inhibitor of growth (ING) family. Members of the ING family associate with and modulate the activity of histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes and function in DNA repair and apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
