Abstract excerpt
Neurospora crassa contains a minimal Polycomb repression system, which provides rich opportunities to explore Polycomb-mediated repression across eukaryotes and enables genetic studies that can be difficult in plant and animal systems. Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 is a multi-subunit complex that deposits mono-, di-, and trimethyl groups on lysine 27 of histone H3, and trimethyl H3K27 is a molecular marker of...
