EZH1/2 function mostly within canonical PRC2 and exhibit proliferation-dependent redundancy that shapes mutational signatures in cancer

The project aimed at determining whether the Polycomb complex PRC2 has a unique composition in androgen independent prostate cancer cells and the project aimed at determining whether EZH2, the enzymatic subunit of PRC2, retains any functional role in the context of Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) where either EED or SUZ12, two essential subunits of PRC2 are inactivated.
