=== Chromodomain function === | === Chromodomain function === | ||
The chromodomain structure of the enzyme (residues ) is not involve in the catalytic function of the enzyme, but is very important to the binding to the molecule. mutations which remove the chromodomain area of the enzyme results in the inhibition of the enzyme. The inhibition of the chromodomain prevents the methylating action of the enzyme's catalytic domain. Although the chromodomain is not directly involved in the methylation of the histone proteins, it plays an important role in the binding of the enzyme to histone proteins as well as other proteins. | |||
