Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) suppresses Eμ-myc lymphoma.
Deregulation of polycomb group complexes polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) and 2 (PRC2) is associated with human cancers. Although inactivating mutations in PRC2-encoding genes EZH2, EED, and SUZ12 are present in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and in myeloid malignancies, gain-of-function mutations in EZH2 are frequently observed in B-cell lymphoma, implying disease-dependent effects of...
متن کاملPolycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) suppresses Em-myc lymphoma
Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are global transcriptional repressors first identified in Drosophila as silencers of Hox genes during development. Subsequent genomewide studies showed that PcG proteins regulate genes involved in diverse cellular functions. PcG proteins exist in 2 distinct protein complexes called polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) and 2 (PRC2). Mammalian PRC1 components include...
متن کاملPolycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) Restricts Hematopoietic Stem Cell Activity
Polycomb group proteins are transcriptional repressors that play a central role in the establishment and maintenance of gene expression patterns during development. Using mice with an N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU)-induced mutation in Suppressor of Zeste 12 (Suz12), a core component of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), we show here that loss of Suz12 function enhances hematopoietic stem cell (...
متن کاملShort RNAs are transcribed from repressed polycomb target genes and interact with polycomb repressive complex-2.
Polycomb proteins maintain cell identity by repressing the expression of developmental regulators specific for other cell types. Polycomb repressive complex-2 (PRC2) catalyzes trimethylation of histone H3 lysine-27 (H3K27me3). Although repressed, PRC2 targets are generally associated with the transcriptional initiation marker H3K4me3, but the significance of this remains unclear. Here, we ident...
متن کاملPolycomb repressive complex 1 modifies transcription of active genes
This study examines the role of Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) at active genes. The PRC1 and PRC2 complexes are crucial for epigenetic silencing during development of an organism. They are recruited to Polycomb response elements (PREs) and establish silenced domains over several kilobases. Recent studies show that PRC1 is also directly recruited to active genes by the cohesin complex. Coh...
