Early discoveries in chromatin biology and epigenetics heralded new insights into
organismal development. From these studies, two mediators of cellular
differentiation were discovered: the Polycomb group (PcG) of transcriptional
repressors, and the trithorax group (trxG) of transcriptional activators. These
protein families, while opposed in function, work together to coordinate the
appropriate cellular developmental programs that allow for both embryonic stem
cell self-renewal and differentiation. Recently, both the PcG and trxG chromatin
modulators have been observed to be deregulated in a wide spectrum diseases
including developmental disorders and cancer. To understand the impact of these
findings we outline the past, present, and future. WIREs Dev Biol 2016,
