    ..Our results indicate that H3K4 methylation in the germline is regulated by a combination of Set1/MLL component-dependent and -independent modes of epigenetic establishment and maintenance. ..

    ..Therefore, the C. elegans MLL-like complex cooperates with the NuA4/TIP60 complex to regulate the expression of a novel effector, AJM-1. ..

    ..In contrast, the deposition of H3K4me2 and H3K27me2/3 is not lineage restricted. Taken together, our data reveal that H3K4me3 deposition is highly regulated according to the cell lineage involved. ..

    ..Taken together, these results demonstrate that UTX-1 is required for many aspects of nematode development; but, unexpectedly, this function is independent of its enzymatic activity...

    ..Our results draw parallels between epigenetic mechanisms underlying robust Td in nature and efficient cell reprogramming in vitro. ..
