Post-translational modifications of H2AZ lysines. H2AZ is methylated on lysines 4 and 7 by the methyltransferase SETD6 (Binda et al., 2013). H2AZ lysines 4, 7, 11, and 13 are acetylated, hypothetically by the acetyltransferase TIP60. Lysines 120, 121, and 125 of H2AZ are ubiquitinated by the E3 ubiquitin ligase RING1B (Sarcinella et al., 2007). H2AZub1 is deubiquitinated by the ubiquitin-specific peptidase USP10 (Draker et al., 2011).
