Abstract excerpt
Post-translational modification of histone proteins plays a major role in histone-DNA packaging and ultimately gene expression. Attachment of ubiquitin to the C-terminal tail of histone H2A (H2AK119Ub in mammals) is particularly relevant to the repression of gene transcription, and is removed by the Polycomb Repressive-Deubiquitinase (PR-DUB) complex. Here, we outline recent advances in the understanding of...
