Gene: Sopen03g024610

General Information

Description Encodes a SU(VAR)3-9 homolog, a methyltransferase involved in histone methylation. The protein was shown to bind to methylated cytosines of CG, CNG and CNN motifs but has a preference for the latter two. This is a member of a subfamily of SET proteins that shares a conserved SRA domain. | SU(VAR)3-9 homolog 6 (SUVH6) | FUNCTIONS IN: methyl-CpNpG binding, methyltransferase activity, methyl-CpG binding, methyl-CpNpN binding | INVOLVED IN: histone methylation | LOCATED IN: nucleus | EXPRESSED IN: 24 plant structures | EXPRESSED DURING: 15 growth stages | CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: SET domain , SRA-YDG , Pre-SET zinc-binding sub-group , Pre-SET domain , Post-SET domain | BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: SU(VAR)3-9 homolog 5
