Abstract

Although cells decommission embryonic enhancers by erasing histone marks, these regions retain hypomethylated DNA into adulthood, preserving an accurate archive of tissue-specific developmental cis elements. This epigenetic memory is recovered after prolonged absence of polycomb repressive complex 2, when transcription factors selectively reactivate hypomethylated developmental enhancers and their tissue-restricted target genes.
