Structural Insights into Specific Recognition of mononucleosome by the catalytic domain of Human KMT5A
2026-07-09
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>SET 8 is the methyltransferase responsible for histone H4 lysine 20 monomethylation (H4K20me1), essential for genomic stability and cell cycle progression. Here we report three cryo-EM structures of human SET 8 catalytic domain bound to canonical nucleosomes at 3.17 Å, 3.14 Å, and 3.10 Å resolutions, revealing distinct conformational states. SET 8 engages the nucleosome acidic patch via...
