ID 2.1.1.356 DE [histone H3]-lysine(27) N-trimethyltransferase. CA L-lysyl(27)-[histone H3] + 3 S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 3 H(+) + CA N(6),N(6),N(6)-trimethyl-L-lysyl(27)-[histone H3] + 3 S-adenosyl-L- CA homocysteine. CC -!- This entry describes enzymes that successively methylate the CC L-lysine(27) residue of histone H3 (H3K27), ultimately generating a CC trimethylated form. CC -!- These modifications influence the binding of chromatin-associated CC proteins. CC -!- The methylation of lysine(27) leads to transcriptional repression of CC the affected target genes. CC -!- The enzyme associates with other proteins to form a complex that is CC essential for activity. CC -!- The enzyme can also methylate some non-histone proteins. cf. CC EC 2.1.1.369 and EC 2.1.1.371.
