Mechanism of histone methylation catalyzed by protein lysine methyltransferase SET7/9 and origin of product specificity.
Methylation of certain lysine residues in the N-terminal tails of core histone proteins in nucleosome is of fundamental importance in the regulation of chromatin structure and gene expression. Such histone modification is catalyzed by protein lysine methyltransferases (PKMTs). PKMTs contain a conserved SET domain in almost all of the cases and may transfer one to three methyl groups from S-aden...
متن کاملO-Methylation of tea polyphenols catalyzed by human placental cytosolic catechol-O-methyltransferase.
In the present study, we evaluated the metabolic O-methylation of several catechol-containing tea polyphenols by human placental catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT). (-)-Epicatechin, (+)-epicatechin, and (-)-epigallocatechin were good substrates for metabolic O-methylation by placental cytosolic COMT (150-500 pmol/mg of protein/min), but (-)-epicatechin gallate and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate ...
متن کاملSubstitutions in the Amino-Terminal Tail of Neurospora Histone H3 Have Varied Effects on DNA Methylation
Eukaryotic genomes are partitioned into active and inactive domains called euchromatin and heterochromatin, respectively. In Neurospora crassa, heterochromatin formation requires methylation of histone H3 at lysine 9 (H3K9) by the SET domain protein DIM-5. Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) reads this mark and directly recruits the DNA methyltransferase, DIM-2. An ectopic H3 gene carrying a substi...
متن کاملSelf-methylation of BspRI DNA-methyltransferase.
The DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase (m5C-MTase) M.BspRI is able to accept the methyl group from the methyl donor S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) in the absence of DNA. Transfer of the methyl group to the enzyme is a slow reaction relative to DNA methylation. Self-methylation is dependent on the native conformation of the enzyme and is inhibited by S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine, DNA and sulfhydr...
متن کاملKinetics of Methylation by EcoP1I DNA Methyltransferase
EcoP1I DNA MTase (M.EcoP1I), an N(6)-adenine MTase from bacteriophage P1, is a part of the EcoP1I restriction-modification (R-M) system which belongs to the Type III R-M system. It recognizes the sequence 5'-AGACC-3' and methylates the internal adenine. M.EcoP1I requires Mg(2+) for the transfer of methyl groups to DNA. M.EcoP1I is shown to exist as dimer in solution, and even at high salt conce...
