In vitro methyltransferase assay was performed as described by Wu et al. (49 (link)). MLL2 complex was prepared by mixing equimolar (5 nM) concentrations of the core complex components, MLL2 (M342-381G-10; SignalChem), ASH2 (A372-30BG-50; SignalChem), WDR5 (W325-30H-50; SignalChem) and RBBP5 (R315-30H-50; SignalChem). Assays were performed in a volume of 20 μl comprising 4 μl of 5× HMTase buffer (250 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.8, 2.5 mM DTT, 100 mM KCl, 50 mM MgCl2), 1 μl of protease inhibitor cocktail (Roche #11836170001), 4 μl of the MLL2 complex, 1 μl of s-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM; 2 mM in water, MP Biomedicals, Inc.), 0.5 μl of 1 mg/ml recombinant Histone H3 (Millipore) and 100 ng of PASK full-length (TP-309096; Origene) or PASK kinase only active protein (PV3972; Thermofisher Scientific). For the assays with V5-purified PASK and mutants, PASK proteins were replaced with the respective mutant. For PASK inhibition by Bio E-115, the specified concentration of the inhibitor was pre-incubated at 37°C for 15 min with the assay components except for the substrate, SAM. After incubation at 37°C for 3 h, sodium dodecyl sulphate loading buffer was added to stop each reaction mixture. Methylation of H3 was determined by western blotting using specific antibodies.
Recombinant histone h3
Recombinant Histone H3 is a laboratory product produced by the Merck Group. It is a recombinant form of the histone H3 protein, a core component of the nucleosome in eukaryotic cells. The product is intended for use in research applications.

Histone Acetylation Assay Protocol
3 H signal was detected with a BioMax Transcreen Intensifying Screen LE (Sigma, Cat.
#Z374318) and BIOMAX MS films. For immunoblotting, the antibodies specific for different acetylated lysine residues were listed in Supplementary Table 9.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
