SUV420H2/KMT5C (SUV420H2)
(Suppressor of Variegation 4-20 Homolog 2 (SUV420H2))
SUV420H2 is a histone methyltransferase that specifically trimethylates 'Lys-20' of histone H4. H4 'Lys-20' trimethylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression. The protein mainly functions in pericentric heterochromatin regions, thereby playing a central role in the establishment of constitutive heterochromatin in these regions. SUV420H1 is targeted to histone H3 via its interaction with RB1 family proteins (RB1, RBL1 and RBL2).Synonyms: Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SUV420H2, Lysine N-methyltransferase 5C, Suppressor of variegation 4-20 homolog 2
