Biomedicinally important histone lysine methyltransferases (KMTs) catalyze the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine (AdoMet) cosubstrate to lysine residues in histones and other proteins. Herein, experimental and computational investigations on human KMT-catalyzed ethylation of histone peptides by using S-adenosylethionine (AdoEth) and Se-adenosylselenoethionine (AdoSeEth) cosubstrates are reported. MALDI-TOF MS experiments reveal that, unlike monomethyltransferases SETD7 and SET ...[more]
