A recent study published in PNAS used single-molecule force spectroscopy to examine unknown interaction mechanisms between polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and chromatin. The authors evaluated arrays of multiple nucleosomes using their C-Trap® optical tweezers system and identified distal nucleosome bridging by PRC2. The findings provide a better understanding of…
