Systematic characterization of chromodomain proteins reveals an H3K9me1/2 reader regulating aging in C. elegans
Chromodomains mainly function as histone methyl-lysine readers to regulate gene expression. Here the authors delineate a functional map of chromodomain proteins and identify an H3K9me1/2 writer, MET-2, and reader, CEC-5, that are required for the normal lifespan of C. elegans.
