1/ It's long been assumed that AEBP2 recruit PRC2 to chromatin. Now, we show that AEBP2 usually does the exact opposite:
The only isoform of AEBP2 that is expressed in most cell types and tissues inhibits the chromatin-binding activity of PRC2. www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

imageimageAEBP2 is an accessory subunit of the PRC2 complex previously implicated both in promoting
and antagonizing Polycomb repressive activity. This study reveals that its alternative
isoforms, AEB...
