Abstract excerpt
Polycomb Group proteins regulate gene expression by modifying chromatin. Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) has two activities: a ubiquitin ligase activity for histone H2A and a chromatin compacting activity. In Drosophila, the Posterior Sex Combs (PSC) subunit of PRC1 is central to both activities. The N-terminal of PSC assembles into PRC1, including partnering with dRING to form the ubiquitin ligase. The...
