Figure 3.
(a) Active site of JMJD2A bound to KG (green carbons) and H3K9me3 (yellow carbons). Orange and green dashed lines represent conventional and CH O hydrogen bonds; blue dashed lines represent bonds coordinating Ni(II). Side chain or main chain atoms of certain residues are omitted for clarity. (b) Trimethyl -ammonium cation of H3K9me3 and methylammonium-binding pocket residue interactions. CH O hydrogen bonds are shown in green and labeled with distances. Inset, electron density of the simulated annealing omit map (contoured at 2.0 ) corresponding to the trimethylated -ammonium cation. (c,d) JMJD2A active site in complex with H3K36me3 (cyan carbons) and NOG (c) and with H3K36me2 (orange carbons) and succinate (d). Hydrogen bonds are depicted as in a.
