Histone methylation is important in the regulation of chromatin and gene expression. Gene organization and evolutionary history Nucleosomes the main components of chromatin consist of histones and histone proteins have positively charged amino-terminal tails that are exposed on the outside of nucleosomes. These tails are subject to several post-translational covalent modifications including acetylation phosphorylation ubiquitination sumoylation and methylation reviewed in 1 . Methylation been found on a range of lysine residues in various histones K4 using the singleletter amino-acid code for lysine K9 K27 K36 and K79 in histone H3 K20 in histone H4 K59 in the globular domain of histone H4 2 and K26 of histone H1B 3 . Several proteins responsible for the methylation of specific residues have been characterized and all but one of these contains a SET domain they make up the SET-domain protein methyltransferase family Table 1 . The exception to the rule is the DOT1 family members of which methylate K79 in the globular region of histone H3 and which are structurally not related to SET-domain proteins 4-6 . Recent .
