Protein lysine 43 methylation by EZH1 promotes AML1-ETO transcriptional repression in leukemia

The oncogenic fusion protein AML1-ETO has the ability of AML1 to interact with DNA but blocks AML1-dependent transcription. Here the authors report that histone lysine methyltransferase EZH1 interacts with AML1-ETO and methylates AML1-ETO at lysine 43, promoting AML1-ETO transcriptional repression i...
