DNMT1 and EZH2 mediated methylation silences the microRNA-200b/a/429 gene and promotes tumor progression

•EZH2 regulates the tri-methylation of H3K27 and reduces DNMT1 expression.•Knocking-down of DNMT1 down-regulates the components of the PRC2 (EZH2, SUZ12, EED) complex.•EZH2 and DNMT1 inactivate the expression of mir-200b/a/429 cluster. Aberrant expression of the microRNA-200 (miR-200) family has bee...
