Kmt2e Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable several functions, including histone H3K4 methyltransferase activity; methylated histone binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including erythrocyte differentiation; neutrophil activation; and neutrophil mediated immunity. Predicted to be located in euchromatin and nuclear body. Predicted to be part of Rpd3L-Expanded complex and Set3 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; heart; metanephros; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autistic disorder and cervical cancer. Orthologous to human KMT2E (lysine methyltransferase 2E (inactive)).

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 mouse Kmt2e often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
