Reprogramming cbx8-prc1 function with a positive allosteric modulator

ABSTRACTCanonical targeting of Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) to repress developmental genes is mediated by cell type-specific, paralogous chromobox (CBX) proteins (CBX2, 4, 6, 7 and 8). Based on their central role in silencing and their misregulation associated with human disease including cancer, CBX proteins are attractive targets for small... Show more
