A Polycomb Repression Signature in Metastatic Prostate Cancer Predicts Cancer Outcome
15 Nov 2007
Abstract excerpt
The Polycomb Group (PcG) protein EZH2 is a critical component of a multiprotein complex that methylates Lys(27) of histone 3 (H3K27), which consequently leads to the repression of target gene expression. We have previously reported that EZH2 is overexpressed in metastatic prostate cancer and is a marker of aggressive diseases in clinically localized solid tumors. However, the global set of genes directly...
