Recognizes and binds histone H3 tails methylated at 'Lys-9', leading to epigenetic repression. Interaction with lamin B receptor (LBR) can contribute to the association of the heterochromatin with the inner nuclear membrane. Publication Abstract from PubMed Protein-protein interactions mediated by methyllysine are ubiquitous in biological systems. Specific perturbation of such interactions has remained a challenging endeavor. Herein, we describe an allele-specific strategy toward an engineered protein-protein interface orthogonal to the human proteome. We develop a methyltransferase (writer) variant that installs aryllysine moiety on histones that can only be recognized by an engineered chromodomain (reader). We establish biochemical integrity of the engineered interface, provide structural evidence for orthogonality and validate its applicability to identify transcriptional regulators. Our approach provides an unprecedented strategy for specific manipulation of the methyllysine interactome.
