EZH2 / EED / SUZ12, His-Tag, FLAG-Tag Recombinant
Recombinant human EZH2 (Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase) in complex with EED (Embryonic ectoderm development protein) and SUZ (Suppressor of zeste).
EZH2, full length encompassing amino acids 2-751 (end), contains an N-terminal His-tag (6xHis). Polycomb protein EED, full length encompassing amino acids 2-441(end), contains an N-terminal FLAG-tag. Polycomb protein SUZ12 full length encompassing amino acids 2-739 (end), also contains an N-terminal His-tag (6xHis). The complex was affinity purified using the FLAG-tag of EED.

Polycomb-group family members form multimeric protein complexes, which are involved in maintaining the transcriptional repressive state of genes over successive cell generations. The EZH2/EED/SUZ complex methylates Lys-9 and Lys-27 of histone H3, leading to transcriptional repression of the affected target genes. The complex recognizes Lys-26 trimethylated histone H1, inhibiting PRC2 complex methyltransferase activity, whereas H3 Lys-27 recognition has the opposite effect, enabling the propagation of this repressive mark. The PRC2/EED-EZH2 complex may also serve as a recruiting platform for DNA methyltransferases, thereby linking two epigenetic repression systems.
