Structures of monomeric and dimeric PRC2:EZH1 reveal flexible modules involved in chromatin compaction

Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is a histone methyltransferase whose silencing activity is regulated in part by the selective incorporation of its catalytic subunits EZH1 or EZH2. Here, the authors capture an EZH1-containing PRC2 dimer on a nucleosome, demonstrating significant conformational c...

Sumario:Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is a histone methyltransferase whose silencing activity is regulated in part by the selective incorporation of its catalytic subunits EZH1 or EZH2. Here, the authors capture an EZH1-containing PRC2 dimer on a nucleosome, demonstrating significant conformational changes during the process.
