The EZH2 SANT1 domain is a histone reader providing ... - Nature
Jan 30, 2019 · There are two SANT domains in Enhancer of Zeste 2 (EZH2), the catalytic subunit of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2), of unknown function. Here we show that the first SANT domain (SANT1)...
The conserved N-terminal SANT1-binding domain (SBD) of EZH2 …
Feb 4, 2025 · Recent structural studies of PRC2 revealed extensive conformational changes in the non-catalytic EZH2 N-terminal SANT-Binding Domain (SBD) during PRC2 activation, though the functional significance remains unclear. Here, …
The roles of EZH2 in cancer and its inhibitors - PMC
EZH2 is involved in the cell cycle, DNA damage repair, cell differentiation, autophagy, apoptosis, and immunological modulation. The main function of EZH2 is to catalyze the methylation of H3 histone of H3K27Me3, which inhibits the transcription of target …
The histone methyltransferase Ezh2 is a crucial epigenetic …
Ezh2 is specifically required to induce effector cells producing IFN-γ and expansion of T cells late upon alloantigen activation. Genetic inactivation of Ezh2 function reduces GVHD but preserves antitumor effects in mice after allogeneic BMT.
Ezh2 competes with p53 to license lncRNA - Nature
May 14, 2022 · Here, we found that the histone methyltransferase Ezh2 mediates the activation of multiple types of inflammasomes in macrophages/microglia independent of its methyltransferase activity and thus...
Targeting EZH2 in Cancer: Mechanisms, Pathways, and …
Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a methyltransferase involved in cell cycle regulation, cell differentiation, and cell death and plays a role in modulating the immune response. Although it mainly functions by catalyzing the tri-methylation of ...
Targeting EZH2 reactivates a breast cancer subtype-specific anti ...
Jun 29, 2018 · Here we report that genetic or pharmacological targeting of the epigenetic modifier Ezh2 dramatically hinders metastatic behaviour in both a mouse model of breast cancer and patient-derived...
The roles of EZH2 in cancer and its inhibitors - PubMed
May 6, 2023 · EZH2 is involved in the cell cycle, DNA damage repair, cell differentiation, autophagy, apoptosis, and immunological modulation. The main function of EZH2 is to catalyze the methylation of H3 histone of H3K27Me3, which inhibits the transcription of target genes, such as tumor suppressor genes.

EZH2, a prominent orchestrator of genetic and ... - ScienceDirect
Mar 1, 2022 · EZH2 orchestrates the regulation of the innate and adaptive immune systems of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Profound epigenetic and transcriptomic changes induced by EZH2 in tumor cells and immune cells mobilize the elements of the TME, leading to immune-suppressive activity of solid tumors.
