Abstract

© 2019, © 2019 The Author(s). Published by Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.Although central to regulating the access to genetic information, most lysine methyltransferases remain poorly characterised relative to other family of enzymes. Herein, I report new substrates for the lysine methyltransferase SETD6. Based on the SETD6-catalysed site on the histone variant H2AZ, I identified similar sequences in the canonical histones H2A, H3, and H4 that are modified by SETD6 in vitro, and putative non-histone substrates. I herein expend the repertoire of substrates for methylation by SETD6.
