Maternal Eed knockout causes loss of H3K27me3 imprinting and random X-inactivation in the extra-embryonic cells
Genomic imprinting is essential for mammalian development. Recent studies have revealed that maternal histone H3 lysine 27 tri-methylation (H3K27me3) can mediate DNA methylation-independent genomic imprinting. However, the regulatory mechanisms and functions of this new imprinting mechanism are largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that maternal Eed, an essential component of the Polycomb group complex 2 (PRC2), is required for establishing H3K27me3 imprinting. We found that all H3K27me3 imprinte...
