histone methyltransferase terms with EC:2.1.1.354 xref #22588

Closed sjm41 closed 1 year ago

sjm41 commented 2 years ago

EC:2.1.1.354 is currently an xref on these two terms:

These should both be removed because EC 2.1.1.354 is for a more specific reaction: https://enzyme.expasy.org/EC/2.1.1.354 NAME: [Histone H3]-lysine(4) N-trimethyltransferase. REACTION: 3 S-adenosyl-L-methionine + a [histone H3]-L-lysine(4) <=> 3 S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + a [histone H3]-N(6),N(6),N(6)-trimethyl-L-lysine(4) COMMENTS: This entry describes several enzymes that successively methylate the L-lysine(4) residue of histone H3 (H3K4), ultimately generating a trimethylated form.

On first glance, it looks like EC:2.1.1.354 could be moved to this child GO term: id: GO:0042800 name: histone methyltransferase activity (H3-K4 specific) def: "Catalysis of the reaction: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone H3 L-lysine (position 4) = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone H3 N6-methyl-L-lysine (position 4). This reaction is the addition of a methyl group onto lysine at position 4 of the histone H3 protein." But I think that GO term is meant to be specifically for monomethyltation (in which case it's xref should be EC:2.1.1.364), or maybe it's a superclass for all types of H3-K4 methylation (in which case it should remain without an EC xref).

== There may be a wider revision to be done here with more specific child terms (to match EC) being adding. I'll copy the current GO terms and relevant EC numbers below for now, but we could transfer these to a new ticket if we want to go down that road....(somewhat similar to the revision of histone demethylases in #21089)

Histone H4

pgaudet commented 2 years ago

I removed the bad cross-references.

For the others: should we create the reactions? Or create the reactions that exist as we did for the deacetylases? for example while https://enzyme.expasy.org/EC/2.1.1.371 describes the addition of a methyl group to the monomethyl form of H3K27, but the EC entry also states that the enzyme catalyzes both mono and di-methylation, which corresponds to EC:2.1.1.369.

Perhaps I could add the xrefs as narrowMatches what do you think?

pgaudet commented 2 years ago

Didn't mean to close.

sjm41 commented 2 years ago

Thanks for removing the bad xrefs.

As to adding new GO terms for all the specific children....I'm not sure. On the one hand, no-one is asking for them and I haven't researched which specific proteins could accurately get these specific annotations. On the other hand, it would make sense to make the organization of the methyltransferase branch of GO mirror the demethylase branch (and get the corresponding EC/Rhea IDs in as xrefs).

From another point of view, I see we already have terms for mono/di/trimethylation for many histone lysine methylation BP terms :

histone lysine methylation
|_histone H3-K4 methylation
|   |__histone H3-K4 monomethylation
|   |__histone H3-K4 dimethylation
|   |__histone H3-K4 trimethylation
|__histone H3-K9 methylation
|   |__histone H3-K9 dimethylation
|   |__histone H3-K9 trimethylation
|__histone H3-K27 methylation
|   |__histone H3-K27 trimethylation
|__histone H3-K36 methylation
|   |__histone H3-K36 dimethylation
|   |__histone H3-K36 trimethylation
|__histone H3-K37 methylation
|__histone H3-K79 methylation
|   |__histone H3-K79 dimethylation
|__histone H4-K20 methylation
    |__histone H4-K20 monomethylation
    |__histone H4-K20 dimethylation
    |__histone H4-K20 trimethylation

Is the plan to obsolete these BP terms since they represent MFs? If so, then I guess we will need the new MF terms so that annotations can still be made at the same level of granularity.
