This entry represents the SET domain found in EZH1.The Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is a chromatin modifying complex that consists of three core components: EED, SUZ12 and one of the two histone H3K27 methyltransferases, EZH1 or EZH2 []. The PRC2 complex catalyses di- and trimethylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K37me2/3), which has a repressive role. Even though EZH1 and EZH2 form similar PRC2 complexes, they exhibit contrasting repressive roles. In terms of their expression in mice, EZH1 is more abundant in nonproliferative adult organs, while EZH2 expression is tightly associated with proliferation [].

This entry represents CXXC-type zinc finger proteins CXXC4 and CXXC5. CXXC4 is a potential tumour suppressor directly regulated by EZH2 []. It has been shown to inactivate mitogen activated protein kinase signaling []. CXXC5 is a retinoid-inducible nuclear factor (RINF) involved in normal myelopoiesis []. It has been associated with various malignant tumours [].
Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) carries out the methylation of lysine 27 of histone H3, a hallmark of repressive chromatin. Three core subunits make up the catalytic core of PRC2; the SET domain containing EZH2, the zinc-finger containing SUZ12 and the WD40 repeat protein EED. The complex forms a compact arrangement of three lobes. This is the N-terminal domain of EZH2 [].
Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) carries out the methylation of lysine 27 of histone H3, a hallmark of repressive chromatin. Three core subunits make up the catalytic core of PRC2; the SET domain containing EZH2, the zinc-finger containing SUZ12 and the WD40 repeat protein EED. The complex forms a compact arrangement of three lobes. The middle lobe largely comprises two domains that mark the beginning of the carboxy (C)-terminal region of EZH2 (MCSS and SANT2) and the helical, C-terminal, component of the Suz12 Vefs domain. This entry describes the MCSS (also known as SANT2L) domain. There is one zinc binding (Zn1Cys3His1) which is formed solely by MCSS [, ].
