Abstract:
Firstly,the mutant strains at H3 lysine 14 of S. cerevisiae BY4741 was constructed. The site could not be acetylated after mutant. Then H3K4 tri-methylations of mutant strains and non-mutant strains (control strains) were detected by Western blot. The results showed that H3K4 tri-methylations were not found in mutant strains at H3 lysine 14, while H3K4 tri-methylations in non-mutant strainsused as control were detected. It suggests that histone H3K14 acetylation can affect H3K4 tri-methylation in S. cerevisiae.
