Deskripsi
Development of the T cells requires functions from thymic epithelial cells, whose development and function are epigenetically regulated. Here the authors show that inactivation of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) alters the H3K27me3 configuration, reduces TEC functions, reveals a specific TEC subset, and hampers T cell development.
