Term Name: histone H3K56 methyltransferase activity
Synonyms: histone H3K56 methylase activity, histone lysine N-methyltransferase activity (H3-K56 specific), histone methyltransferase activity (H3-K56 specific), histone-H3K56 methyltransferase activity
Definition: Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone H3 L-lysine (position 56) = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone H3 N6-methyl-L-lysine (position 56). This reaction is the addition of a methyl group to the lysine residue at position 56 of the histone H3 protein.
