| + | [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/EED_MOUSE EED_MOUSE]] Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Component of the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex, which methylates 'Lys-9' and 'Lys-27' of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. Also recognizes 'Lys-26' trimethylated histone H1 with the effect of inhibiting PRC2 complex methyltransferase activity on nucleosomal histone H3 'Lys-27', whereas H3 'Lys-27' recognition has the opposite effect, enabling the propagation of this repressive mark (By similarity). The PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex may also serve as a recruiting platform for DNA methyltransferases, thereby linking two epigenetic repression systems (By similarity). Genes repressed by the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex include HOXA7, HOXB6 and HOXC8. Plays a role in X chromosome inactivation (XCI), in which one of the two X chromosomes in female mammals is transcriptionally silenced to equalize X-linked gene dosage with XY males. Required for stable maintenance of XCI in both embryonic and extraembryonic tissues. May prevent transcriptional activation of facultative heterochromatin during differentiation. Required for development of secondary trophoblast giant cells during placental development. May regulate hippocampal synaptic plasticity in the developing brain.<ref>PMID:9234727</ref> <ref>PMID:9742080</ref> <ref>PMID:11479595</ref> <ref>PMID:12370779</ref> <ref>PMID:12689588</ref> <ref>PMID:12627233</ref> <ref>PMID:12649488</ref> <ref>PMID:15516932</ref> <ref>PMID:15916951</ref> <ref>PMID:16618801</ref> <ref>PMID:16415857</ref> <ref>PMID:17259173</ref> <ref>PMID:17997413</ref> <ref>PMID:18201968</ref> [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/EZH2_MOUSE EZH2_MOUSE]] Polycomb group (PcG) protein. Catalytic subunit of the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex, which methylates (H3K9me) and 'Lys-27' (H3K27me) of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target gene. Able to mono-, di- and trimethylate 'Lys-27' of histone H3 to form H3K27me1, H3K27me2 and H3K27me3, respectively. Compared to EZH2-containing complexes, it is more abundant in embryonic stem cells and plays a major role in forming H3K27me3, which is required for embryonic stem cell identity and proper differentiation. The PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex may also serve as a recruiting platform for DNA methyltransferases, thereby linking two epigenetic repression systems. Genes repressed by the PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex include HOXA7, HOXB6 and HOXC8. EZH2 can also methylate non-histone proteins such as the transcription factor GATA4.<ref>PMID:12689588</ref> <ref>PMID:15520282</ref> <ref>PMID:15516932</ref> <ref>PMID:19026780</ref> <ref>PMID:18086877</ref> | ||
