Official gene symbolSETDB1
Full nameSET domain, bifurcated 1
Aliases,ESET,H3-K9-HMTase4,KG1T,KIAA0067,KMT1E,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a histone methyltransferase. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the reaction of S-adenosyl-L-methionine and histone L-lysine to produce S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine and histone N(6)-methyl-L-lysine. The encoded protein likely functions in transcriptional repression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.
