Molecular function

Exact synonym

histone H3K36 mono/di/trimethylase activity, histone H3K36 trimethylase activity, histone lysine N-trimethyltransferase activity (H3-K36 specific)

Description

Catalysis of the reaction: L-lysyl36-[histone H3] + 3 S-adenosyl-L-methionine = 3 H+ + N6,N6,N6-trimethyl-L-lysyl36-[histone H3] + 3 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine. This reaction is the successive addition of three methyl groups to the lysine residue at position 36 of histone H3, producing histone H3K36me3.
