Targeting EZH2-mediated methylation of histone 3 inhibits proliferation of pediatric acute monocytic leukemia cells in vitro
3 Apr 2021
Abstract excerpt
Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a histone methyltransferase and a catalytic subunit of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) that catalyzes the mono-, di-, and tri-methylation of histone H3 at Lys 27 (H3K27me3) to facilitate chromatin-remodeling and gene-silencing functions. Previous reports showed a significant association of EZH2 aberrations in pediatric cancers, such as soft tissue sarcomas and...
