Gene information for KMT2B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9757
Official gene symbolKMT2B
Full namemyeloid/lymphoid or mixed-lineage leukemia 4
Aliases,HRX2,MLL1B,MLL2,MLL4,TRX2,WBP7,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein which contains multiple domains including a CXXC zinc finger, three PHD zinc fingers, two FY-rich domains, and a SET (suppressor of variegation, enhancer of zeste, and trithorax) domain. The SET domain is a conserved C-terminal domain that characterizes proteins of the MLL (mixed-lineage leukemia) family. This gene is ubiquitously expressed in adult tissues. It is also amplified in solid tumor cell lines, and may be involved in human cancer. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported for this gene, however, the full length nature of the shorter transcript is not known. [provided by RefSeq]
