Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of histones exert fundamental roles in regulating gene expression. During development, groups of PTMs are constrained by unknown mechanisms into combinatorial patterns, which facilitate transitions from uncommitted embryonic cells into differentiated somatic c...

Histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) is a highly conserved silencing epigenetic mark. Chromatin marked with H3K9me2 forms large domains in mammalian cells and overlaps well with lamina-associated domains and the B compartment defined by Hi-C. However, the role of H3K9me2 in 3-dimensional (3D)...

Methylation of DNA in combination with histone modifications establishes an epigenetic code that ensures the proper control of gene expression. Although DNA methyltransferases have been shown to interact with histone methyltransferases such as EZH2 (which methylates histone H3 on lysine 27) and G9a ...

During mammalian development DNA methylation patterns need to be reset in primordial germ cells (PGC) and preimplantation embryos. However, many retro-transposons and imprinted genes are resistant to such global epigenetic reprogramming via hitherto undefined mechanisms. Here, we report that some of...

Transcription regulation involves enzyme-mediated changes in chromatin structure. Here, we describe a novel mode of histone crosstalk during gene silencing, in which histone H2A monoubiquitylation is coupled to the removal of histone H3 Lys 36 dimethylation (H3K36me2). This pathway was uncovered thr...

Precise control of transcriptional programs underlying metazoan development is modulated by enzymatically active co-regulatory complexes, coupled with epigenetic strategies, but how specific members of histone modification enzyme families such as histone methyltransferases and demethylases are utili...

Histone H3 lysine 36 (H3K36) methyltransferases are frequently mutated in cancer, but their functional roles remain unclear. Using functional genomics approaches within KRAS-driven lung cancer models, we show that NSD2, SETD2, and EZH2 work in concert to regulate expression of endogenous retroviral ...

Histone methyltransferases catalyze site-specific deposition of methyl groups, enabling recruitment of transcriptional regulators. In mammals, trimethylation of lysine 4 in histone H3, a modification localized at the transcription start sites of active genes, is catalyzed by six enzymes (SET1a and S...
