The Polycomb protein Ezl1 mediates H3K9 and H3K27 methylation to repress transposable elements in Paramecium

H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 chromatin silencing marks are usually deposited by different SET-domain proteins. Here the authors show that the Enhancer-of-zeste-like protein Ezl1, from the unicellular eukaryote Paramecium tetraurelia, catalyzes methylation of histone H3 in vitro and in vivo with an apparent...
