Mechanism of Histone Arginine Methylation Dynamic Change in Cellular Stress.

ABSTRACT: Histone arginine residue methylation is crucial for individual development and gene regulation. However, the dynamics of histone arginine methylation in response to cellular stress remains largely unexplored. In addition, the interplay and regulatory mechanisms between this and other histone modifications are important scientific questions that require further investigation. This study aimed to investigate the changes in histone arginine methylation in response to DNA damage. We report a global decrease in histone H3R26 symmetric dimethylation (H3R26me2s) and hypoacetylation at the H3K27 site in response to DNA damage. Notably, H3R26me2s exhibits a distribution pattern similar to that of H3K27ac across the genome, both of which are antagonistic to H3K27me3. Additionally, histone deacetylas
