Abstract

A developmental program affecting human face shape is shown by Greenberg et al. (2019) to hinge on the ability to distinguish a single methyl group between two histone variant isoforms and the action of the chromatin-remodeling enzyme SRCAP. This challenges researchers to link atomic structure to a morphological defect.
