FunFam 61135: Putative histone-lysine N-methyltransferase ASH1L

There are 3 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase. [EC: 2.1.1.43]
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + L-lysine-[histone] = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N(6)-methyl-L-lysine-[histone].

    Porphobilinogen synthase. [EC: 4.2.1.24]
    2 5-aminolevulinate = porphobilinogen + 2 H(2)O.
    • The enzyme catalyzes the asymmetric condensation and cyclization of two 5-aminolevulinate molecules, which is the first common step in the biosynthesis of tetrapyrrole pigments such as porphyrin, chlorophyll, vitamin B12, siroheme, phycobilin, and cofactor F430.
    • The enzyme is widespread, being essential in organisms that carry out respiration, photosynthesis, or methanogenesis.
    • In humans, the enzyme is a primary target for the environmental toxin Pb.
    • The enzymes from some organisms utilize a dynamic equilibrium between architecturally distinct multimeric assemblies as a means for allosteric regulation.

    Threonine ammonia-lyase. [EC: 4.3.1.19]
    L-threonine = 2-oxobutanoate + NH(3).
    • The reaction catalyzed by both types of enzymes involves the initial elimination of water to form an enamine intermediate (hence the enzyme's original classification as EC 4.2.1.16), followed by tautomerization to an imine form and hydrolysis of the C-N bond.
    • The latter reaction, which can occur spontaneously, is also be catalyzed by EC 3.5.99.10.
    • The enzymes from a number of sources also act on L-serine, cf. EC 4.3.1.17.
    • Formerly EC 4.2.1.16.
