Lysine methyltransferase SETD6 modifies histones and non-histone proteins
Although central to regulating the access to genetic information, most lysine methyltransferases remain poorly characterised relative to other family of enzymes. Herein, we report new substrates for the lysine methyltransferase SETD6. Based on the SETD6catalysed site on the histone variant H2AZ, we identified similar sequences in the canonical histones H2A, H3, and H4 that are modified by SETD6...
متن کاملLysine methylation: beyond histones.
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) of histone proteins, such as acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, and ubiquitylation, play essential roles in regulating chromatin dynamics. Combinations of different modifications on the histone proteins, termed 'histone code' in many cases, extend the information potential of the genetic code by regulating DNA at the epigenetic level. Many PTMs occ...
متن کاملHistones with High Lysine Content
1. The preparation and properties of lysine-rich histones, which differ in a number of respects from the classical arginine-rich histones, have been described. 2. Lysine-rich histones, like those previously known, are located in cell nuclei. 3. Lysine-rich histones dissociate more readily from combination with nucleic acid than do other histones.
متن کاملSynthesis of lysine methyltransferase inhibitors
Lysine methyltransferase which catalyze methylation of histone and non-histone proteins, play a crucial role in diverse biological processes and has emerged as a promising target for the development of various human diseases, including cancer, inflammation, and psychiatric disorders. However, inhibiting lysine methyltransferases selectively has presented many challenges to medicinal chemists. D...
متن کاملN-nitrosation and denitrosation on lysine residues of histones.
Increased immunoactivity of (-nitrosolysine was detected in Western blot in peroxynitrite-reacted histones H2A, H3 and H4. The N-nitrosation may be reversible as indicated by the decreased immunoactivity via either subsequent incubation with reduced glutathione or 48-hour dialysis and 48-hour storage at 4 degrees C. Nonetheless, the biological significance of N-nitrosation of protein lysine is ...
