H3K69 methylation is generally associated with transcriptional activation, with methylation catalyzed by DOT/DOT1L enzyme in the context of a nucleosome. Aberrant methylation of H3K79 has been implicated in leukemias. Histone H3 (69-89) peptides are used for assessing the specificity of anti-H3K79me antibodies.
