Descriptions

The eukaryotic maintenance DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 is multimodular protein composed of a replication foci-targeting domain (RFD), a DBA-binding CXXC domain, a pair of bromo-adjacent homology (BAH) domains, and a C-terminal catalytic domain, and mediates maintenance of genomic methylation patterns. In a study with mouse DNMT1, the CXXC may specifically bind to unmethylated CpG dinucleotide and position the CXXC-BAH1 linker between the DNA and the active site of DNMT1, preventing de novo methylation. Therefore, unmethylated CpG dinucleotides are occluded from the active site to ensure that only hemimethylated CpG dinucleotides undergo methylation.

1 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
nucleus A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.

4 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase activity Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + DNA containing cytosine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + DNA containing 5-methylcytosine.
DNA binding Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
promoter-specific chromatin binding Binding to a section of chromatin that is associated with gene promoter sequences of DNA.
zinc ion binding Binding to a zinc ion (Zn).

4 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
chromatin organization The assembly or remodeling of chromatin composed of DNA complexed with histones, other associated proteins, and sometimes RNA.
maintenance of DNA methylation Any process involved in maintaining the methylation state of a nucleotide sequence.
positive regulation of DNA methylation-dependent heterochromatin assembly Any process that increases the rate, frequency, or extent of DNA methylation-dependent heterochromatin formation.
Ras protein signal transduction The series of molecular signals within the cell that are mediated by a member of the Ras superfamily of proteins switching to a GTP-bound active state.
