Mechanisms of Substrate Recognition by the Multispecific Protein Lysine Methyltransferase SETD6

The SETD6 protein lysine methyltransferase monomethylates specific lysine residues in a diverse set of substrates which contain the target lysine residue in a highly variable amino acid sequence context. To investigate the mechanism underlying this multispecificity, we analyzed SETD6 substrate recog...
