Live-cell single particle tracking of PRC1 reveals a highly dynamic system with low target site occupancy
How PRC1 recognises and interacts with its target genes remains poorly understood. Here, the authors use genome engineering and single particle tracking to dissect how PRC1 binds to chromatin in live mouse embryonic stem cells, revealing that this repressor is highly dynamic, with only a small fract...

Summary: | How PRC1 recognises and interacts with its target genes remains poorly understood. Here, the authors use genome engineering and single particle tracking to dissect how PRC1 binds to chromatin in live mouse embryonic stem cells, revealing that this repressor is highly dynamic, with only a small fraction stably interacting with chromatin. |
