Comprehensive structure-function characterization of DNMT3B and DNMT3A reveals distinctive de novo DNA methylation mechanisms
In mammals, DNA methylation patterns are established by two de novo DNA methyltransferases, DNMT3A and DNMT3B. Here the authors report the crystal structures of DNMT3B in complex with both CpG and CpA DNA, providing insight into the substrate-recognition mechanism underpinning the divergent genomic...

| Sumario: | In mammals, DNA methylation patterns are established by two de novo DNA methyltransferases, DNMT3A and DNMT3B. Here the authors report the crystal structures of DNMT3B in complex with both CpG and CpA DNA, providing insight into the substrate-recognition mechanism underpinning the divergent genomic methylation activities of DNMT3A and DNMT3B. |
