Protein lysine methyltransferases(PKMTs)catalyze the methylation of lysine residues on the tails of histone proteins.In contrast to many other PKMTs for which unmodified lysine is the methylation target,the enzymes in the Suv4-20 family are able to generate di-methylated product(H4K20me2)based exclusively on mono-methylated H4K20 substrate(H4K20me1).
