CK2-mediated phosphorylation of SUZ12 promotes PRC2 function by stabilizing enzyme active site

Here the authors identify SUZ12 as a cellular substate of casein kinase 2 (CK2), and show this phosphorylation changes the active site structure of Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and promotes PRC2 function in cell identity maintenance during stem cell differentiation.
