Histone modifications are associated with distinct transcription states and serve as heritable epigenetic markers for chromatin structure and function. H4K20me2 is the most common methylation state on histone H4 and was one of the earliest modified histone residues to be identified back in pea and calf extracts in 1969. It is also the only identified methylated lysine residue on the H4 histone.
