CAS Registry Number
Comments This entry describes several enzymes that successively methylate the L-lysine9 residue of histone H3 (H3K9), ultimately generating a trimethylated form. These modifications influence the binding of chromatin-associated proteins. In general, the methylation of H3K9 leads to transcriptional repression of the affected target genes. Formerly EC 2.1.1.43.
