Polycomb repressive complex 2 structure with inhibitor reveals a mechanism of activation and drug resistance
Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) mediates gene silencing through chromatin reorganization by methylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27). Here, the authors present crystal structures of the inhibitor-bound wild-type and a mutant form of PRC2.
