"In general, while methylation of p53 at K370, K373 and K382 represses p53 transcriptional activities, methylation at K372 enhances p53 activities. xref – xref Since KDM3A knockdown activated the expression of p53-dependent genes, we reasoned that increasing p53 methylation enhanced its transcriptional activities."

"Our ChIP results instead showed a biased distribution of SETD8 and H4K20me1 in the p21 gene body, particularly in the PC3 cells (Fig. xref ). (ii) The biological contexts in which SETD8 was dissected were different—while the earlier report elucidated functional relevance of the SETD8‐mediated methylation at Lys382 of p53 in apoptosis (Shi et al ., xref ), our work focused on the connection of SETD8 to p21 expression during cellular senescence."
