Abstract

In this issue of Molecular Cell, Sampath et al. show a lysine methylase exhibits substrate promiscuity and variability in degree of product methylation (Sampath et al., 2007). Two lysines are found to be automethylated in G9a, and one is H3K9-like and can establish a docking site for HP1 chromodomain.
