The repertoire of adaptive immune receptor is generated by V(D)J recombination, somatic rearrangements of V, D and J gene segments, in the respective loci. Here the authors show that the deficiency of Setd2, a histone methyl transfer, impairs V(D)J recombination and induces severe developmental blocks in both T and B lineages.
