Suz12 is a Polycomb group (PcG) protein. These proteins form multiprotein complexes,which keep homeotic genes in a transcriptionally repressive state throughout development. PcG proteins are not required to initiate repression,but maintain it during later stages of development. They probably act via the methylation of histones. Suz12 is a component of the PRC2 complex,which is composed of EED,EZH2,SUZ12/JJAZ1,RBBP4 and RBBP7,and methylates ‘Lys-9’ and ‘Lys-27’ of histone H3.
