Chromatin silencing protein and pachytene checkpoint regulator Dot1p has a methyltransferase fold.
M.Dlakić.
 
  ABSTRACT  
 
Although protein methylation has been observed for decades, its functional significance has remained largely unclear. Using sensitive profile searches and structural modeling, chromatin silencing protein and meiotic recombination checkpoint regulator Dot1p was identified as a putative protein methyltransferase. Along with recent results that link histone H3 methylation with chromatin silencing, this finding suggests that an expanded combinatorial repertoire of protein modifications affects transcriptional regulation.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
