Abstract
How and whether histone modifications regulate distinct gene networks remains insufficiently understood. Here Cattaneo et al show that DOT1L catalyzed H3K79me2 regulates fetal chamber-specific gene expression and neonatal cardiomyocyte cell cycle withdrawal to coordinate heart development.
