This guide distinguishes target experiments, ortholog evidence and database propagation for all 186 imported annotation contexts. The five source-described products remain separate; cell species, expression host and historical construct names do not establish equivalent natural-product functions. The campaign curation instructions govern supported generic binding and reference-only support without new publication quotations.
The annotation checkpoint contains 81 ACCEPT, 69 KEEP_AS_NON_CORE, 21 MODIFY and 15 UNDECIDED decisions. These are evidence assessments, not a claim that every biochemical or product-specific question is resolved.
This section covers the 67 functional source contexts in 30 intact PMID groups. Binding and database evidence are addressed in the following sections. Human proteins, variant preparations, heterologous hosts, native cell assays and ortholog evidence remain distinguished. No NEW annotation or quotation is added.

Two correction notices are included as genuine normal caches: PMID:38383797(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38383797/) and PMID:38347304(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38347304/). Their full publisher notices were inspected separately because the normal caches are abstract-only. The corrections are limited to the specified control panels, not whole-paper retractions.
Broad protein-lysine methyltransferase annotations retain H1.4 and JARID2 substrate chemistry. H3K27-specific sources retain their narrower scope. Histone reading by EED/PHF proteins, O-GlcNAc transfer by OGT and RBBP4-dependent association are not recast as EZH2 catalytic or direct binary functions.
Promoter-specific chromatin binding means association with promoter chromatin; it does not require intrinsic sequence-specific DNA recognition. Chromatin architecture, transcription, downstream signaling and cell phenotypes are assessed separately. The circadian and lymphoma papers include actual human EZH2 experiments despite mouse-focused abstracts.
The reference full_text_unavailable flags describe the selected normal caches. A separately inspected original can support a VERIFIED manual assessment while its normal cache remains abstract-only.
EZH2 is a catalytic component of PRC2. The experiments discussed here distinguish its contacts with chromatin and RNA from the targeting contributions of accessory proteins, and distinguish enzymatic chemistry from the downstream developmental contexts in which that chemistry acts.
PMID:33479123(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33479123/) was read in its operative structural Results and expression, purification, nucleosome and activity Methods. The preparation contains full-length human EZH2, engineered human EED/SUZ12 and JARID2 components, and additional PRC2 partners expressed in High Five insect cells. EZH2 SET/CXC and bridge-helix regions contact nucleosomal DNA and the histone tail. These are direct target contacts, not evidence that EZH2 independently recognizes a promoter nucleotide motif. The study uses Xenopus histone preparations and separate commercial human modified nucleosomes; the cellular origin of the enzyme and substrate should not be conflated. Its SAH assay integrates methyl-transfer events rather than independently resolving each methylation state.
Broader substrate terms remain meaningful. In PMID:19144645(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19144645/), anti-EZH2 immunoprecipitates from a HeLa nuclear-pellet fraction methylate H1.4, with WT/K26A substrate comparisons. The paper also studies G9a, but the EZH2 experiment is separately positive. The preparation is not isolated EZH2. PMID:25620564(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25620564/) demonstrates PRC2 methylation of nonhistone JARID2 K116 and cellular dependence on Ezh2/Eed. Its peptide-binding and structural experiments identify EED as the methyllysine reader; that binding role is not reassigned to EZH2. Mammalian and fly PRC2 preparations and mouse ES-cell experiments are distinguished; all construct details delegated to supplements were not independently inspected.
The official EC 2.1.1.356 reaction and the target UniProt RHEA:60292 mapping support H3K27 trimethylation. The current ARBA00098061 endpoint returned 404, and its unavailable condition sets are not reconstructed. A source-specific H3K27 refinement does not erase independent H1.4 or JARID2 evidence.
The mouse donor experiments in PMID:24137001(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24137001/), 23942234 and 20956546 contain positive Ezh2 chromatin occupancy. However, the inspected synthetic RNA–DNA hybrid assay in the first does not contain EZH2 protein; motif experiments in the second concern YY1; and motif/EMSA experiments in the third concern STAT6. Figure 2D in PMID:20798045(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20798045/) measures H3K27me3 ChIP. None of those observations alone demonstrates EZH2 sequence discrimination.
PMID:18483221(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18483221/) includes mouse ES-cell chromatin measurements and separate human 293T association/artificial Gal4 recruitment experiments. PMID:20064375(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20064375/) includes mouse ES-cell work and a separate positive human ES-cell ChIP-qPCR experiment. Its direct JARID2 interaction maps to SUZ12, not EZH2. Selected publisher Results from PMID:26658965(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26658965/) support Linc-YY1-dependent changes in PRC2 occupancy in mouse C2C12 cells; the motif/EMSA experiments concern YY1. Full operative Methods, underlying supplementary datasets and figure pixels from that paper were not read.
GO:0000976 deliberately permits non-sequence-specific regulatory-region binding, and GO:1990841 describes promoter-associated chromatin binding. These are distinct from the sequence-specific terms. The positive evidence supports chromatin DNA binding where the original assertion implied EZH2 nucleotide-sequence recognition.
PMID:21172659(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21172659/) explicitly tests human FLAG-EZH2 and human PRC2 purified from Sf9 cells, including heparin and size-exclusion steps, with RNA EMSA. Cellular mouse RIP and UV-crosslink experiments are separate. The direct ligands include RepA, Hes1 antisense and Gtl2-derived RNAs, supporting the more specific lncRNA-binding activity. The purified ligand is RNA, not an assembled RNA–protein complex; no lncRNA sequence exclusivity is inferred.
In PMID:27618650(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27618650/), the EMSA uses a mouse Ezh2 insert in a human in-vitro translation system. The host system does not make the product human. Rat/mouse Chaer experiments, reported human iPSC-cardiomyocyte RIP, and purified human RNA binding from the independent paper are kept separate. The human supplementary RIP figure was not viewed. PMID:21874018(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21874018/) uses mouse ES-cell formaldehyde RIP for lincRNA associations; this is not an isolated-protein binding assay for every recovered RNA. The pri-miR-208b result in PMID:24137001 is a particular mouse cardiac RNA-ChIP context, retained as non-core.
PMID:19026781(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19026781/) distinguishes EZH2-associated histone methylation from stronger EZH1 SAM-independent compaction. The latter is not transferred to EZH2. PMID:16717091(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16717091/) contains positive human EZH2 constructs: enhancement of CRY-dependent repression of mouse promoter reporters in HeLa and rescue of mouse-specific siRNA effects in NIH3T3 cells. Mouse liver ChIP/co-IP and mouse fibroblast oscillations remain distinct from those human-construct results. No native human circadian time course is claimed.
PMID:23531880(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23531880/) perturbs YY1 and rescues with WT versus deltaREPO; it does not knock out Ezh2. Independent actual PMID:12496962(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12496962/) deletes the mouse Ezh2 SET region and demonstrates a cell-autonomous pro-B to pre-B defect with H3K27 changes. EZH2 is not thereby assigned the recombinase step. The inspected author original for PMID:12900441(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12900441/) provides mouse pronuclear Ezh2 localization and maternal-depletion controls. PMID:27892467(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27892467/) shows conditional pericentric recruitment in Dnmt1-deficient mouse ES cells and separate engineered MBD–Ezh2 targeting. These do not establish constitutive native human pericentric occupancy.
Operative originals remain unavailable for the specific rat contexts in PMIDs 22821416, 23932971, 25088689, 27690696 and 18467665. Registry/abstract access is explicitly distinguished from actual experiment reading. Current rat GOA assigns IEP to hippocampus development, estradiol response and kidney regulation; other contexts use IMP. Expression can be a valid response readout, but it does not automatically establish participation in a developmental step. The unusual title of PMID:27690696 is not grounds to reject its curator-supported GABAergic or inflammatory assertions.
Actual PANTHER v19 PTHR45747 tree and MSA place human Q15910 at PTN002505151; its ungapped 746-residue sequence exactly matches the displayed target. Positive IBDs at PTN000768863 support chromatin binding, nucleus, heterochromatin formation, negative transcription regulation and H3K27 methyltransferase activity. PTN005243577 supports ESC/E(Z) complex membership. Both nodes are ancestral to the target; no target-path NOT assertion was found. Human self-WITH entries are legitimate experimental descendant support. Refining nucleus to nucleoplasm or heterochromatin formation to the facultative process does not dispute those placements.
Current ARBA00085892 matches FunFam 2.170.270.10:FF:000001 plus Primates; ARBA00089504 matches that FunFam plus Mammalia. Current target InterPro records include IPR045318 and the IPR021654/IPR044439 domains. Their mappings and actual human assays are assessed separately. GO:0006338 includes histone-state changes and is not restricted to ATP-driven sliding. An incidental H3K37 spelling in InterPro prose is not propagated as new EZH2 chemistry.
The Human Protein Atlas EZH2 record reports nucleoplasmic localization. Selected supported CAB009589 U-251MG and HPA029131 SiHa composites were actually viewed; neither selected composite has a visible blue overlay. Green central/nuclear-looking signal is interpreted together with official antibody/cell annotations, without quantitative localization claims. The complete HPA029131 antigen matches all five source products; the CAB009589 antigen sequence is not supplied. The images therefore do not identify a particular natural product.
All imported Reactome groups have independently verified representative paths to native human EZH2 entity 212298: reference entity 54556 identifies Q15910, coordinates are modeled 1–746, and the entity’s own compartment is nucleoplasm. The shared PRC2 complex is 212285. EZH1-containing alternatives are not substituted for the explicit EZH2 route.
R-HSA-212263, R-HSA-5638332 and R-HSA-9764932 explicitly identify EZH2 as an active unit for histone chemistry. R-HSA-3240783 instead produces EZH2 protein from a regulated expression event; this supports a modeled location without assigning EZH2 the act of its own transcription. In DNMT-associated pathways, the DNA methyltransferases perform DNA cytosine methylation. The location and neighboring enzyme functions are not conflated. Representative target routes are verified; unrelated branches with retained access failures are not claimed to form a complete graph survey.
The five UniProt products remain distinct. Exact antigen sharing, a displayed-sequence PAINT match and a modeled full-length Reactome participant do not establish equivalent activity or localization for all products. No new figure-pixel or supplementary-file reading is implied beyond the two explicitly viewed HPA images.
This source-specific assessment covers 53 protein-interaction contexts from 31 publications. Cellular co-IP/AP-MS associations, two-hybrid tests, purified or translated-protein assays, proximity measurements and computational network context are distinguished. Supported generic interactions are retained as non-core under the campaign instruction; seven partner-specific molecular-function refinements use current ontology definitions. No new publication quotations or annotation rows are added.
The five source-declared human products (746, 751, 707, 737 and 695 residues) remain distinct. A human host or a database isoform label does not by itself establish a historical insert sequence or functional equivalence of all products. Negative tests, mutant effects and disease-fusion partners retain their experimental context.
An unavailable original does not overturn an experimental curator. Where the same human pair is independently established by inspected primary experiments, the reason names that independent source and preserves the original-access limitation. The ATRX context remains unresolved because the human EZH2/ATRX reagent provenance is not established; the listed corrections are unread, without an asserted scientific impact.

Publisher abstract, original supplementary Methods and actual 2007 corrigendum; main remains unavailable.
The corrigendum restores omitted lanes in Figures 2a, 2c, 4a and Supplementary Figure 1 and states that conclusions are unaffected. Corrected Figure 2a tests GST-EZH2 fragments against in-vitro-translated DNMT1/3A/3B; Figure 2c shows endogenous HeLa EZH2/EED IP recovery of DNMTs. GST-EZH2 1–746 and 1–340 interact, whereas the tested C-terminal fragment does not. Supplementary Methods distinguish bacterial GST fusion, reticulocyte translation and HeLa nuclear co-IP. This is binding evidence, not DNA-methyltransferase chemistry performed by EZH2; coordinates are the paper constructs.
Actual figure pixels inspected: corrected Figure 2 panels, corrigendum page 2.
Public read scope: Corrected Figures 2a and 2c and S1; original Supplementary Methods: GST pull-down and HeLa nuclear-extract immunoprecipitation. Public source: https://doi.org/10.1038/nature05710. Corrected Figure 2 panels were inspected as pixels by this lane.
Role of the polycomb repressive complex 2 in acute promyelocytic leukemia. (PubMed record).
Actual author-hosted original PDF.
Human NB4/U937-PR9 experiments establish pathological PML-RARA/PRC2 association. Transfected 293T native RARA shows weaker association, while endogenous native RARA is not recovered in the tested U937/HL60 contexts. SUZ12 contributes to the fusion association. Q15156 is the PML-RARA entry in this source context, not a native PML interaction inferred by gene-name shorthand. No purified binary affinity or universal natural-product equivalence is established.

Phosphorylation of EZH2 activates STAT3 signaling via STAT3 methylation and promotes tumorigenicity of glioblastoma stem-like cells. (PubMed record).
Official BioC original main.
Human patient-derived glioblastoma stem-like cells show EZH2–STAT3 co-IP; association is weaker in differentiated cells and tested established lines. STAT3 IP also recovers PRC2 components. STAT3 K180 and EZH2 S21/catalytic-mutant experiments establish context dependence. The cellular methylation experiments are not a purified turnover assay, and no uniform natural-product equivalence is established.

Dnmt3L antagonizes DNA methylation at bivalent promoters and favors DNA methylation at gene bodies in ESCs. (PubMed record).

The mouse Dnmt3L construct is explicitly Addgene 13356. Mouse ESC endogenous IPs, FLAG-Dnmt3L in human HEK293, and recombinant GST-EZH2/FLAG-Dnmt3L tests are distinguished. The paper names GST-EZH2 reagent H00002146-P01; the historical lot sequence is not verified. HEK293 experiments show endogenous DNMT3A/3B co-IP reduced by increasing mouse Dnmt3L. The partner Q9CWR8 is correctly mouse; human host does not change its species. This is an author proof, not an assertion of final-version byte identity.

ATRX directs binding of PRC2 to Xist RNA and Polycomb targets. (PubMed record).
Actual original full main in immutable normal record.
Mouse Xist biology is separate from purified ATRX/PRC2 binding and sequential ATRX then EZH2 IP of the RNA-containing assembly. The Methods describe FLAG/HA full-length ATRX produced in Sf9 and refer PRC2 preparation to prior work; the human EZH2/ATRX reagent provenance is not resolved by these passages. Cellular nuclear IP from human 293F is a macroH2A experiment, not automatically this exact pair. Preserve the source assertion without claiming a verified human binary assay or all-product specificity. Official metadata additionally identifies a correction DOI 10.1016/j.cell.2014.11.010; its operative text and the second cache-listed correction were not recovered in this bounded pass, so no claim about their scientific impact is made.

The authored refinements are nuclear receptor binding, transcription corepressor binding, histone methyltransferase binding, DNA-binding transcription factor binding and protein kinase B binding. Current definitions and typed ancestor closures place each under molecular function and protein binding. Binding to an enzyme or regulator does not transfer the partner’s catalytic, DNA-recognition or adaptor activity to EZH2.
No normal publication cache was edited. Cache full-text flags are not treated as proof of complete original access; recovered original versions, supplementary tables, corrections and remaining access gaps are recorded separately.
The reference full_text_unavailable values describe the metadata of the selected normal publication caches. They do not erase verified external original-text, supplementary-table or figure access recorded above. In particular, a source can have a VERIFIED manual reference assessment while its selected cache contains only an abstract. Metadata marked as full text can also contain incomplete extraction; those scientific access limitations remain explicit in the individual assessments.
Five donor publication files (PMIDs 24137001, 20064375, 12900441, 27892467 and 21874018) use the exact already-committed cache bytes for delivery. The privately fetched versions differ only in per-line trailing whitespace and, in four records, publication-type metadata. Their identifiers, titles, full-text availability and scientific body text agree. Both versions are preserved in the evidence record; no publication cache is edited or synthesized.
Public paper and original table locators above replace private extraction filenames in reference prose. IntAct PMID links are public search locators, not a claim of a new retrieved query. Exact private source captures and read ledgers remain separately pinned.
Two activities summarize the accepted evidence: H3K27 methylation by the catalytic EZH2 subunit of PRC2, and direct binding to tested long noncoding RNA ligands. The current definition of GO:0140951 includes successive methyl addition to form H3K27me3; it does not mean that EZH2 acts only on a dimethylated substrate. WT PRC2 acts on unmethylated, mono- and dimethylated H3K27 substrates with different efficiencies (PMID:22323599, Results accompanying Figure 3 and Materials and Methods). Human PRC2 reconstitution and native human-cell biochemical evidence establish the complex requirement (PMID:15385962, Figures 6–7 and Biochemical and enzymatic analyses). The direct molecular-function slot identifies EZH2's catalytic site within that complex; it does not assert an active isolated enzyme. A separate broad protein-lysine methyltransferase unit would duplicate an ancestor of this core activity. H1.4 methylation by human anti-EZH2 immunoprecipitates (PMID:19144645, Figure 1 and Experimental Procedures) and PRC2-mediated JARID2 K116 methylation (PMID:25620564, Figure 1) remain positive substrate-breadth evidence in the biological description and consistently retained protein-lysine methyltransferase reviews.
EZH2 contacts nucleosomal DNA and the H3 tail, making chromatin the location of the catalytic unit (PMID:33479123, nucleosome-engagement Results and Protein purification/Nucleosome reconstitution). The experiment uses full-length human EZH2 with engineered PRC2/accessory constructs; Xenopus histones and separate purchased human modified nucleosomes are distinguished. Total SAH production is cumulative methyltransferase output, while Western blots and reported mass spectrometry separately address H3K27 methylation states. EED reads methylated ligands; JARID2/AEBP2 and Polycomb-like proteins add distinct targeting functions. These are not transferred to EZH2. The two selected process facets, facultative heterochromatin formation and negative regulation of Pol II transcription, are not ancestors of one another in the captured ontology. EZH2 performs the methyl-transfer step; the process attribution is supported by chemistry together with human catalytic-mutant rescue, repression and chromatin-accessibility/FISH experiments (PMID:26581166, Results accompanying Figures 4–6 and the corresponding main Methods), rather than necessity alone. Detailed supplemental construct protocols and new figure-pixel inspection are not claimed.
The lncRNA-binding unit rests on purified human EZH2 and human PRC2 EMSAs (PMID:21172659, Figure 5 and protein-purification/RNA-EMSA Methods) and the independent isolated-loop experiment (PMID:35682829, Results 2.4 and Methods 4.1–4.3). Human recombinant binding is distinct from the mouse ES-cell RIP and locus-regulation experiments. The tested direct ligands are lncRNA-derived; the refinement specifies those ligands without asserting exclusive recognition of lncRNAs. The isolated loop binds the HOTAIR fragment weakly with low specificity; its phosphomimetic mutant is not a measurement of phosphorylation. Neither experiment establishes that every PRC2-associated transcript directly binds EZH2, that an RNA G-quadruplex is universally required, or that RNA binding always recruits, activates or inhibits PRC2. Accordingly, this unit has no separately asserted process term. Nucleoplasm is a supported broad compartment, not a claim that the in-vitro binding assay localizes the interaction. RNA binding and nucleosomal substrate engagement are retained without extra generic chromatin- or protein-binding core units.
The five source-described EZH2 products remain separate. Historical residue numbering, full-length assay labels and engineered fragments are not universal current-product assignments. The new questions address product-specific assembly/catalysis and RNA-binding consequences. All earlier source-access limits and cache-versus-original distinctions remain in force. The feedback clarifications below change authored judgments and add selected reference-only support and findings while preserving every imported source object, reference identity and product.
Ras signaling and hydrolysis. PMID:20154697(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20154697/), Figure 5 and the corresponding Results/Methods, tests human prostate epithelial cells, promoter-associated repression of DAB2IP, Ras-GTP and downstream signaling, and reversal by DAB2IP reconstitution. Suppression of a Ras GAP does not increase GTPase catalytic activity. GO:0046579 captures the positive signaling outcome; EZH2 is the upstream transcriptional regulator. The 2024 correction concerns a Figure 1g Ki-67 control micrograph, not these Figure 5 assays.
Chromatin and substrate breadth. PMID:26581166(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26581166/), Figures 4–6 and chromatin-accessibility/FISH Methods, supports a regulated H3K27-dependent facultative process in human MCF7 cells. The four broad heterochromatin contexts are refined consistently without assigning H1.2 reader/structural activity to EZH2. The broad protein-lysine methyltransferase contexts are retained because the H1.4 and JARID2 experiments supply real additional substrate classes. Reactome R-HSA-212263 supplies narrower H3K27-trimethylation evidence for one of those broad assertions. R-HSA-5638332 instead describes mono-, di- and trimethylation and the MeK28-histone H3 output set; the H3K27-site refinement does not assert that this event is mono-only. The source's histone K28 numbering is distinguished from the conventional H3K27 name.
Catalytic granularity and disease. GO:0140951 explicitly describes three successive methyl transfers, so retaining it includes intermediate methylation steps. Adding its broader ancestor as another core would duplicate that activity. PMID:22323599(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22323599/), Figures 3–4 and main Materials and Methods, directly compares wild-type and lymphoma-associated variant preferences. PMID:26694085(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26694085/), Results and methyltransferase-assay Methods, tests Weaver-associated variants in reconstituted human PRC2. Several tested variants reduce activity; neither this experiment nor the separate EED/SUZ12 variant study establishes a uniform mechanism for every EZH2 allele.
Evidence limits. No new original figure-pixel inspection or inaccessible supplement recovery is claimed by this feedback pass. PMID:9214638 remains abstract-only. The lncRNA refinement rests on actual human biochemical assays, not on mouse RNA-ChIP or a generic claim that every PRC2-associated RNA is a ligand. Existing historical construct and natural-product boundaries remain unchanged.
PMID:26694085(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26694085/), Materials and Methods and Figure 2, tests human wild-type and variant PRC2 with mixed core histones, alongside separate H3-tail peptide assays. PMID:19144645(https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19144645/), Experimental Procedures and Figure 1E, independently measures H1.4-directed methylation in anti-EZH2 immunoprecipitates from HeLa nuclear pellets. These scopes support retaining broad histone methyltransferase activity without changing the specific H3K27 catalytic core or claiming isolated EZH2 activity on H1.4.
The seven nucleus assertions are consistently refined using the human HPA nucleoplasm annotation and native human Reactome participant 212298. Nuclear fractionation and promoter ChIP retain their actual resolutions; neither is relabeled as a new nucleoplasm imaging assay. Nucleoplasm is a finer nuclear compartment, not an assertion that EZH2 is absent from chromosomes or other supported pools. The existing antibody/product and structural-source access limits remain unchanged. No additional image pixels, original figures or supplementary experiments were inspected for this clarification.
