Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) can both read and write H3K27me3, enabling progressive spreading of H3K27me3 on the linear genome. Long-range Polycomb-associated DNA contacts have also been ...
Most of our genome is often written off as “junk DNA”, meaning it doesn’t encode for genes that get made into proteins. This so-called junk consists of accumulated DNA elements like viral DNA that got ...
Changes in histone modifications of genes involved in flowering. (a) The removal of Polycomb complexes by SDG7 protein. (b) Transcription elongation and the deposition of H3K36me3 by SDG8 protein. PRE ...
Example of a tumour obtained by reducing the expression levels of a Polycomb protein. On the left is an example of precursor tissue of the eye during normal development. On the right, a tumour has ...
The roots of cancer run deep. Indeed, they’re usually assumed to run all the way to the blighted bits of DNA we call oncogenic mutations. But what if they don’t have to run quite that deep? What if ...
