Jiao and Liu (Research Articles, 16 October 2015, aac4383) reported the crystal structure of the protein complex polycomb repressive complex 2 from Chaetomium thermophilum This landmark structure has brought invaluable insights into the activation mechanism of this essential methyltransferase. However, the analysis of the x-ray data discussed below suggests that the description of oncogenic H3K27M peptide binding to the active site is incorrect.
