The WDR5-containing histone methyltransferase MLL complex, recruited to the THBS1 (TSP-1) promoter via RUNX1 (and possibly GATA1), is assumed to methylate histone H3 on dimethylated lysine residue K4 (K5 when taking into account the initiator methionine), producing the H3K4me3 mark. The H3K4me3 mark is characteristic of nucleosome associated with transcriptionally active promoters of megakaryocyte-specific genes (Herglotz et al. 2013) and the appearance of the H3K4me3 mark at the THBS1 promoter coincides with THBS1 transactivation (Michaud-Levesque and Richard 2009).
