Q
H3K27 Ac
A
Tx active
- enhancer
8
Q
H3K4 Me
A
Tx active
- Methylated by MLL/SET1
- Me1 –> active enhancer
- Me3 –> active promotor (CpG) –>recruited by TFIID
- Me2 –> downstream in gene –> Set3 HDAC –> Less H3/H4 acetylation in 5’ end of genes
- H3K4me3 inhibits Dnmt3 –> reinforces the DNA hypomethylated state
9
Q
H3K36 Me
A
Tx active
H3K36me3:
- All regions of the gene, mostly to the end
- methylated by SET2 (attracted by CTD-Ser2-Ph)
- and then recruits HDAC complexes
-H3K36 promotes Dnmt3
10
Q
H3K79 Me
A
Tx active
- Located primarily near start of gene, gradient to end of gene
11
Q
H3S10 Ph
A
Tx active (also involved in mitosis/chromosome segregation)
12
Q
H2BK120 Ub1
A
Tx active
Required for:
- H3K4 me2/me3 (SET1/compass)
- H3K79me3 (Dot1L)
Removed by DUB-domain of STAGA
13
Q
..R. Me
A
Tx active (methylated H4R3 facilitates H4 acetylation)
14
Q
H4 deAc
A
Tx inactive
15
Q
H3K. deAc
A
Tx inactive
16
Q
H3K9 Me3
H3K9me2
A
H3K9me3:
Tx inactive
- Methylated by SUV3-9
- constitutive heterochromatin
H3K9me2 (Trx inactive mark, around TSS):
- prohibiting acetylation
- recruiting transcriptional repressors
- Bound by Stella in the maternal pronucleus and protects 5mC from TET3-mediated conversion into 5hmC
