H3K27me3 is deposited at promoters by the preferential association of Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) with CpG-rich DNA elements regulating development by repressing gene transcription. H3K27 is also present in mono- and dimethylated states; however, the functional roles of H3K27me1 and H3K27me2 deposition remain poorly characterized. Here, we show that PRC2 activity is not only associated with H3K27me3 but also regulates all forms of H3K27 methylation in a spatially defined manner, contrib ...[more]
