Chemical modifications of histone proteins directly and indirectly affect chromatin structure and thereby contribute to the multilayered control of diverse DNA-based processes. A recent study in Nature enriches this list of enzyme-dependent posttranslational histone marks by H2A glutamine methylation that appears to be dedicated to only one specific cellular process, the regulation of nucleolar rDNA transcription.
