H3 K27M and EZHIP impede H3K27-methylation spreading by inhibiting allosterically stimulated PRC2
2020-08-05
Abstract excerpt
Diffuse midline gliomas and posterior fossa type-A ependymomas contain the highly recurrent histone H3 K27M mutation and the H3 K27M-mimic EZHIP, respectively. In vitro , H3 K27M and EZHIP are competitive inhibitors of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) lysine methyltransferase activity. In vivo , these proteins reduce overall H3K27me3 levels, however residual peaks of H3K27me3 remain at CpG islands through an...
