Polycomb Repression under the Skin
Polycomb group proteins control a hierarchy of gene expression during the differentiation of stem cells. In this issue, Ezhkova et al. (2009) show that repression mediated by Polycomb proteins controls the timing of differentiation of precursor cells of the epidermal lineage.
متن کاملSugarcoating ER Stress
The hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP) generates metabolites for protein N- and O-glycosylation. Wang et al. and Denzel et al. report a hitherto unknown link between the HBP and stress in the endoplasmic reticulum. These studies establish the HBP as a critical component of the cellular machinery of protein homeostasis.
متن کاملPolycomb repression of flowering during early plant development.
All plants flower late in their life cycle. For example, in Arabidopsis, the shoot undergoes a transition and produces reproductive flowers after the adult phase of vegetative growth. Much is known about genetic and environmental processes that control flowering time in mature plants. However, little is understood about the mechanisms that prevent plants from flowering much earlier during embry...
متن کاملVernalization-mediated VIN3 Induction Overcomes the LIKE-HETEROCHROMATIN PROTEIN1/POLYCOMB REPRESSION COMPLEX2-mediated epigenetic repression.
VERNALIZATION INSENSITIVE3 (VIN3) induction by vernalization is one of the earliest events in the vernalization response of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). However, the mechanism responsible for vernalization-mediated VIN3 induction is poorly understood. Here, we show that the constitutive repression of VIN3 in the absence of the cold is due to multiple repressive components, including a tr...
متن کاملA polycomb repression signature in metastatic prostate cancer predicts cancer outcome.
The Polycomb Group (PcG) protein EZH2 is a critical component of a multiprotein complex that methylates Lys(27) of histone 3 (H3K27), which consequently leads to the repression of target gene expression. We have previously reported that EZH2 is overexpressed in metastatic prostate cancer and is a marker of aggressive diseases in clinically localized solid tumors. However, the global set of gene...
