FunFam 106: Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase

Please note: GO 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.

There are 3 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

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.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Histone methyltransferase activity GO:0042054
Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + methyl-histone. Histone methylation generally occurs on either an arginine or lysine residue.
1 Q9NH52 (/IDA)
Histone methyltransferase activity GO:0042054
Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + methyl-histone. Histone methylation generally occurs on either an arginine or lysine residue.
1 Q9NH52 (/NAS)
Histone methyltransferase activity (H3-K36 specific) GO:0046975
Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone H3 L-lysine (position 36) = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone H3 N6-methyl-L-lysine (position 36). This reaction is the addition of a methyl group onto lysine at position 36 of the histone H3 protein.
1 Q9NH52 (/IMP)

There are 6 GO terms relating to "biological process"

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.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Histone H3-K36 methylation GO:0010452
The modification of histone H3 by addition of one or more methyl groups to lysine at position 36 of the histone.
1 Q9NH52 (/IMP)
Gene silencing GO:0016458
Any process carried out at the cellular level that results in either long-term transcriptional repression via action on chromatin structure or RNA mediated, post-transcriptional repression of gene expression.
1 Q9NH52 (/IMP)
Histone methylation GO:0016571
The modification of histones by addition of methyl groups.
1 Q9NH52 (/IDA)
Histone methylation GO:0016571
The modification of histones by addition of methyl groups.
1 Q9NH52 (/IMP)
Germ-line sex determination GO:0018992
The determination of sex and sexual phenotype in an organism's germ line.
1 Q9NH52 (/IMP)
Regulation of gene expression, epigenetic GO:0040029
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression; the process is mitotically or meiotically heritable, or is stably self-propagated in the cytoplasm of a resting cell, and does not entail a change in DNA sequence.
1 Q9NH52 (/IMP)

There are 4 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

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.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Nuclear chromosome GO:0000228
A chromosome that encodes the nuclear genome and is found in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell during the cell cycle phases when the nucleus is intact.
1 Q9NH52 (/IDA)
X chromosome GO:0000805
The sex chromosome present in both sexes of species in which the male is the heterogametic sex. Two copies of the X chromosome are present in each somatic cell of females and one copy is present in males.
1 Q9NH52 (/IDA)
Chromosome GO:0005694
A structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information.
1 Q9NH52 (/IDA)
Autosome GO:0030849
Any chromosome other than a sex chromosome.
