Polycomb repressive complex 1 shapes the nucleosome landscape but not accessibility at target genes

Abstract:

Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are transcriptional repressors that play important roles regulating gene expression during animal development. In vitro experiments have shown that PcG protein complexes can compact chromatin to limit the activity of chromatin remodelling enzymes and access of the transcriptional machinery to DNA. In fitting with these ideas, gene promoters associated with PcG proteins have been reported to be less accessible than other gene promoters. However, it remains largely...
