Selective suppression of antisense transcription by Set2-mediated H3K36 methylation

Maintenance of chromatin structure in coding regions is partially dependent on transcription, with histone methyltransferase Set2 playing a role in this process. Here, the authors provide evidence that Set2 regulates repression of a specific set of antisense RNAs embedded within the coding genes.
