Term Name: histone H3K27 monomethyltransferase activity
Synonyms: histone H3-K27 methylation, histone H3-K27 monomethylase activity, histone H3K27 methylation, histone H3K27 monomethylase activity, histone lysine N-monomethyltransferase activity (H3-K27 specific)
Definition: Catalysis of the reaction: L-lysyl27-[histone H3] + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = H+ + N6-methyl-L-lysyl27-[histone H3] + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine. This reaction is the addition of a single methyl group to the unmethylated lysine residue at position 27 of histone H3, producing histone H3K27me.
