KANSL1 Gene Summary [Human]

This gene encodes a nuclear protein that is a subunit of two protein complexes involved with histone acetylation, the MLL1 complex and the NSL1 complex. The encoded protein has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes including enhancer regulation, cell proliferation, and mitosis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Koolen-de Vries Syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human KANSL1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
