Abstract

Karakashev et al. show that CARM1 promotes EZH2-mediated epigenetic silencing of the shieldin complex protein MAD2L2. Inhibition of EZH2 induces MAD2L2 expression and non-homologous end-joining in CARM1-high, homologous recombination proficient ovarian carcinoma cells, sensitizing them to PARP inhibitors.
