Abstract excerpt
Methylation of lysine residues is an important post-translational modification of histone and non-histone proteins, which is introduced by protein lysine methyltransferases (PKMTs). An increasing number of reports demonstrate that aberrant lysine methylation plays a central role in carcinogenesis that is often correlated with abnormal expression of PKMTs. Recent whole genome and whole transcriptome sequencing...
