In this issue of Structure, Mahana et al. present their structural characterization of an annotated methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) from the histone H3 lysine 9 methyltransferase SETDB2. This study reveals that, rather than binding DNA as previously hypothesized, this domain instead interacts with a cystine-rich domain from C11orf46, highlighting its involvement in protein-protein interactions.
在本期《结构》杂志中,Mahana 等人对组蛋白 H3 赖氨酸 9 甲基转移酶 SETDB2 的注释甲基化 CpG 结合域(MBD)进行了结构表征。该研究表明,与之前假设的结合 DNA 不同,该结构域与来自 C11orf46 的富含半胱氨酸的结构域相互作用,突出了其在蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用中的参与。
