Structural Basis for Recognition of Ubiquitylated Nucleosome by Dot1L Methyltransferase

Summary: Histone H3 lysine 79 (H3K79) methylation is enriched on actively transcribed genes, and its misregulation is a hallmark of leukemia. Methylation of H3K79, which resides on the structured disk face of the nucleosome, is mediated by the Dot1L methyltransferase. Dot1L activity is part of a tra...
