Two distinct repressive mechanisms for histone 3 lysine 4 methylation through promoting 3'-end antisense transcription.

Histone H3 di- and trimethylation on lysine 4 are major chromatin marks that correlate with active transcription. The influence of these modifications on transcription itself is, however, poorly understood. We have investigated the roles of H3K4 methylation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by determining...
