| 1 | Methylation of histone H3 lysine 9 creates a binding site for HP1 proteins. | Lysine | defensin alpha 1 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | Here we show that mammalian methyltransferases that selectively methylate histone H3 on lysine 9 (Suv39h HMTases) generate a binding site for HP1 proteins--a family of heterochromatic adaptor molecules implicated in both gene silencing and supra-nucleosomal chromatin structure. | Lysine | defensin alpha 1 | Homo sapiens |
