Live-cell single-molecule dynamics of PcG proteins imposed by the DIPG H3.3K27M mutation
Diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas exhibit a characteristic mutation of lysine 27 to methionine (K27M) in genes encoding histone H3.3. Here the authors show that the H3.3K27M mutation imposes a specific pattern of H3.3K27 methylation by altering the target search dynamics of PcG proteins.
