Molecular mechanism for the regulation of Polycomb repressive complex 2

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to determine how the histone methyltransferase Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) is regulated. The project expects to generate new knowledge in transcription regulation and epigenetics. The intended outcome is to enhance the national capabilities in two important fields, Polycomb biology and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). This should provide significant benefits, including strengthening of the epigenetic community through the development of innovative research program in Polycomb biology and the establishment of a national world-class cryo-EM community.
