Histone methylation on lysine residues is believed to function primarily as docking sites to
recruit specific proteins termed as histone code" readers" or" effectors." Each lysine residue
can be mono-, di, and tri-methylated and different methylation states can have different effect
on chromatin function. While an increasing number of proteins have been identified and
characterized as specific effectors for methylated histones, very few of the proteins are
known to recognize a particular state of methylation. In this study, we identified nardilysin …
