Abstract
Histone methylation is widely believed to contribute to epigenetic inheritance by persevering through DNA replication and subsequently templating methylation of daughter chromosome regions. However, a report in this issue (Petruk et al.) suggests that chromatin association of the methytransferase complexes themselves persists through replication and re-establishes histone methylation.Year: 2012 PMID: 22939615 DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2012.08.006
