FunctionSpindlin-1 (SPIN1) is a Tudor-like domain-containing protein is a histone methylation effector protein and facilitates the expression of rRNA genes[1]. SPIN1 senses a cis-tail histone H3 methylation pattern. Spindlin-2B is involved in the regulation of cell cycle progression. RelevanceSPIN1 is implicated in liposarcoma and its inhibitors may represent a novel therapeutic strategy[2]. Structural highlightsThe crystal complex of SPIN1 and histone H3 peptide shows the encapsulation of the histone trimethyllysine and its Arg in hydrophobic pockets of SPIN1[3].
