ENZYME entry: EC 2.1.1.371

Accepted Name
[histone H3]-lysine(27) N-dimethyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
L-lysyl(27)-[histone H3] + 2 S-adenosyl-L-methionine <=> 2 H(+) + N(6),N(6)-dimethyl-L-lysyl(27)-[histone H3] + 2 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine
Comment(s)
  • This entry describes enzymes that successively methylate the L-lysine(27) residue of histone H3 (H3K27) twice, ultimately generating a dimethylated form.
  • These modifications influence the binding of chromatin-associated proteins.
  • The human NSD3 protein also catalyzes the activity of EC 2.1.1.370. Cf. EC 2.1.1.356 and EC 2.1.1.369.
