Abstract :
Trimethylation of histone H3 on Lys36 (H3K36me3) by SETD2 is linked to actively transcribed regions. Li et al. identify a novel role for H3K36me3 that facilitates DNA mismatch repair (MMR) in cells by targeting the MMR machinery to chromatin during the cell cycle, thereby explaining certain cases of MMR-defective cancers.
