Abstract excerpt
The differentiation of developmental cell lineages is associated with genome-wide modifications in histone H3 methylation. However, the causal role of histone H3 methylation in transcriptional regulation and cell differentiation has been difficult to test in mammals. The experimental overexpression of histone H3 mutants carrying lysine-to-methionine (K-to-M) substitutions has emerged as an alternative tool for...
