Kmt2b | Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2B; Histone methyltransferase that methylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (By similarity). H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation (By similarity). Plays a central role in beta-globin locus transcription regulation by being recruited by NFE2 (By similarity). Plays an important role in controlling bulk H3K4me during oocyte growth and preimplantation development. Required during the transcriptionally active period of oocyte growth for the establishment and/or maintenance of bulk H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3), [...] (2713 aa) | ||||
Kdm8 | Bifunctional peptidase and arginyl-hydroxylase JMJD5; Bifunctional enzyme that acts both as an endopeptidase and 2- oxoglutarate-dependent monoxygenase. Endopeptidase that cleaves histones N-terminal tails at the carboxyl side of methylated arginine or lysine residues, to generate 'tailless nucleosomes', which may trigger transcription elongation. Preferentially recognizes and cleaves monomethylated and dimethylated arginine residues of histones H2, H3 and H4. After initial cleavage, continues to digest histones tails via its aminopeptidase activity. Upon DNA damage, cleaves the N-term [...] (414 aa) |
