Purification | Affinity-chromatography |
Immunogen | A synthesized peptide derived from human SETD7 |
Description | Histone methyltransferase that specifically monomethylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3. H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. Plays a central role in the transcriptional activation of genes such as collagenase or insulin. Recruited by IPF1/PDX-1 to the insulin promoter, leading to activate transcription. |
Storage Condition and Buffer | Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline , pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol. Store at +4°C short term. Store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze / thaw cycle. |

Function | Histone methyltransferase that specifically monomethylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (PubMed:11779497, PubMed:11850410, PubMed:12540855, PubMed:12588998, PubMed:16141209). H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation (PubMed:12540855, PubMed:12588998, PubMed:16141209). Plays a central role in the transcriptional activation of genes such as collagenase or insulin (PubMed:12588998, PubMed:16141209). Recruited by IPF1/PDX-1 to the insulin promoter, leading to activate transcription (PubMed:16141209). Also has methyltransferase activity toward non- histone proteins such as CGAS, p53/TP53, TAF10, and possibly TAF7 by recognizing and binding the [KR]-[STA]-K in substrate proteins (PubMed:15099517, PubMed:15525938, PubMed:16415881, PubMed:35210392). Monomethylates 'Lys-189' of TAF10, leading to increase the affinity of TAF10 for RNA polymerase II (PubMed:15099517, PubMed:16415881). Monomethylates 'Lys-372' of p53/TP53, stabilizing p53/TP53 and increasing p53/TP53-mediated transcriptional activation (PubMed:15525938, PubMed:16415881, PubMed:17108971). Monomethylates 'Lys-491' of CGAS, promoting interaction between SGF29 and CGAS (By similarity). |
