Histone H4 lysine 20 mono-methylation directly facilitates chromatin openness and promotes transcription of housekeeping genes

The effect of histone H4 lysine 20 methylation (H4K20me) on chromatin accessibility are not well established. Here the authors show how H4K20 methylation regulates chromatin structure and accessibility to ensure precise transcriptional outputs through the cell cycle using genome-wide approaches, in...
