Tissue specificity: Widely expressed [IMAGE] Pathway & Disease-focused RT2 Profiler PCR Arrays including WHSC1: Epigenetic Chromatin Modification Enzymes in human mouse rat Ubiquitin Ligases in human mouse rat Primer Products: [IMAGE] OriGene qSTAR qPCR primer pairs in human
Function: Histone methyltransferase with histone H3 'Lys-27' (H3K27me) methyltransferase activity. Isoform RE-IIBP may act as a transcription regulator that binds DNA and suppresses IL5 transcription through HDAC recruitment Histone methyltransferase with histone H3 'Lys-27' (H3K27me) methyltransferase activity. Isoform RE-IIBP may act as a transcription regulator that binds DNA and suppresses IL5 transcription through HDAC recruitment
Catalytic activity: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + L-lysine-[histone] = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + N(6)-methyl-L-lysine-[histone]
Similarity: Belongs to the class V-like SAM-binding methyltransferase superfamily. Histone-lysine methyltransferase family. SET2 subfamily Contains 1 AWS domain Contains 1 HMG box DNA-binding domain Contains 4 PHD-type zinc fingers Contains 1 post-SET domain Con
