sparser
"C-terminal lysine residues of p53 are methylated in vivo at K370, K372, K373, and K382 by histone lysine methyl transferases, Smyd2, SET9, G9a/Glp, and Set8, respectively. xref – xref While K372 methylation by SET9 in human cells enhanced p53 transcriptional activities, the role of p53 methylation in the mouse by Set7/9 was controversial. xref – xref However, it should be pointed out that the results from mouse embryonic fibroblasts in the mouse study might be inappropriate to apply to human epithelial cells."

reach
"Indeed, histone lysine methyltransferases KMT5 (Set9), KMT3C (Smyd2), and KMT5A (Set8) methylate p53 at specific C-terminal lysines."
