Abstract
Lysine methylation signaling is well studied for its key roles in the regulation of transcription states through modifications on histone proteins. While histone lysine methylation has been extensively studied, recent discoveries of lysine methylation on thousands of non-histone proteins has broadened our appreciation for this small chemical modification in the regulation of protein function. In this review, we highlight the significance of histone and non-histone lysine methylation signaling in skeletal muscle biology, spanning development, maintenance, regeneration, and disease progression. Furthermore, we discuss potential future implications for its roles in skeletal muscle biology as well as clinical applications for the treatment of skeletal muscle-related diseases.
期刊介绍:
Exploring the molecular mechanisms that underpin key biological processes, the Biochemical Journal is a leading bioscience journal publishing high-impact scientific research papers and reviews on the latest advances and new mechanistic concepts in the fields of biochemistry, cellular biosciences and molecular biology.
The Journal and its Editorial Board are committed to publishing work that provides a significant advance to current understanding or mechanistic insights; studies that go beyond observational work using in vitro and/or in vivo approaches are welcomed.
Painless publishing:
All papers undergo a rigorous peer review process; however, the Editorial Board is committed to ensuring that, if revisions are recommended, extra experiments not necessary to the paper will not be asked for.
Areas covered in the journal include:
Cell biology
Chemical biology
Energy processes
Gene expression and regulation
Mechanisms of disease
Metabolism
Molecular structure and function
Plant biology
