description | E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MSL2 (MSL2; [intenz:6.3.2.-]) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that promotes monoubiquitination of histone H2B at 'Lys-35' (H2BK34Ub), but not that of H2A. It is a component of MSL complex [].The male-specific lethal (MSL) complex is a histone acetyltransferase with specificity for histone H4 'lysine-16' in chromatin. The complex consists of MOF, MSL1, MSL2, and MSL3 []. The complex was first identified in Drosophila. |
