Popis: The identification of kinases that control epigenetic mechanisms in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) can be of therapeutic relevance. Here the authors show that loss of nuclear kinase ULK3 impairs the recruitment of two histone arginine methyltransferases, PRMT1 and PRMT5 to the promoter regions of genes of functions, hence, suppressing the tumorigenic potential of SCC cells.
