Target Information

Target Symbol EHMT2
Target Name Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase EHMT2
UniProt ID Q96KQ7
Cellular Localization Nucleus. Chromosome. Associates with euchromatic regions. Does not associate with heterochromatin.
Function Histone methyltransferase that specifically mono- and dimethylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3 (H3K9me1 and H3K9me2, respectively) in euchromatin. H3K9me represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression by recruiting HP1 proteins to methylated histones. Also mediates monomethylation of 'Lys-56' of histone H3 (H3K56me1) in G1 phase, leading to promote interaction between histone H3 and PCNA and regulating DNA replication. Also weakly methylates 'Lys-27' of histone H3 (H3K27me). Also required for DNA methylation, the histone methyltransferase activity is not required for DNA methylation, suggesting that these 2 activities function independently. Probably targeted to histone H3 by different DNA-binding proteins like E2F6, MGA, MAX and/or DP1. May also methylate histone H1. In addition to the histone methyltransferase activity, also methylates non-histone proteins: mediates dimethylation of 'Lys-373' of p53/TP53. Also methylates CDYL, WIZ, ACIN1, DNMT1, HDAC1, ERCC6, KLF12 and itself.
Post-translational Modifications Methylated at Lys-185; automethylated.
Domain The SET domain mediates interaction with WIZ.The ANK repeats bind H3K9me1 and H3K9me2.
Sequence Similarities Belongs to the class V-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Histone-lysine methyltransferase family. Suvar3-9 subfamily. Contains 7 ANK repeats. Contains 1 post-SET domain. Contains 1 pre-SET domain. Contains 1 SET domain.
