Brief Description | SET-domain containing protein lysine methyltransferase family protein |
TAIR Computational Description | SET-domain containing protein lysine methyltransferase family protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes SUVR4, a nucleolar histone methyltransferase with preference for monomethylated H3K9. One of the four closely related Arabidopsis SUVR proteins that belong to the SU(VAR)3-9 subgroup of SET-domain proteins. Proteins containing the evolutionarily conserved SET domain are involved in regulation of eukaryotic gene expression and chromatin structure through their histone lysine methyltransferase (HMTase) activity. SUVR1, SUVR2 and SUVR4 proteins contain a novel domain at their N-terminus, and a SUVR specific region preceding the SET domain. |
