Rabbit Anti-KMT4/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates lysine-79 of histone H3. It is inactive against free core histones, but shows significant histone methyltransferase activity against nucleosomes. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
Function:
The KMT4 / Dot1 (disruptor of telomeric silencing) family are a class of histone methyltransferases that play an indirect role in chromatin silencing by targeting a conserved lysine residue in the nucleosome core. Biochemical studies suggest that recombinant Dot1 proteins are active on recombinant nucleosomes, free of any modifications.
Subunit:
Interacts with MLLT10.
Subcellular Location:
Nuclear
Similarity:
Belongs to the class I-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. DOT1 family.
Contains 1 DOT1 domain.
