It combines two of the most evolutionarily conserved domains of the \"chromatin regulators\": the chromo and SET domains (2,3). The 60 amino acid chromo domain represents an ancient histone-like fold that directs heterochromatic localizations. It has been demonstrated that the 130 amino acid SET domain contains the methyltransferase catalytic motif, which cooperates with the adjacent cysteine-rich regions to confer histone methyltransferase activity (1). This enzyme selectively methylates histone H3 on Lys9, which generates a binding site for HP1 proteins, a family of heterochromatic adaptor molecules involved in both gene silencing and supra-nucleosomal chromatin structure (4,5). SUV39H1 histone methyltransferase plays an important role in modification of histone amino termini and regulation of gene expression.\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nH3-K9-HMTase 1; Histone H3-K9 methyltransferase 1; Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SUV39H1; histone-lysine N-methyltransferase, H3 lysine-9 specific 1; KMT1A; Lysine N-methyltransferase 1A; MG44; Position-effect variegation 3-9 homolog; Su(var)3-9 homolog 1; Suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1; suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1 (Drosophila); SUV39H; SUV39H1; SUV91\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 48\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799969222825,"sku":"8729T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-8729t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
