EZH1 and EZH2 promote skeletal growth by repressing inhibitors of chondrocyte proliferation and hypertrophy
EZH1 and EZH2 are associated with epigenetic bone and cartilage developmental defects. Here the authors show that cartilage-specific double knockout mice have reduced skeletal growth and how these histone methyltransferases regulate chondrogenesis and endochondral bone development.
