Kmt2e - lysine (K)-specific methyltransferase 2E

Predicted to enable enzyme binding activity and methylated histone binding activity. Involved in several processes, including DNA methylation; erythrocyte differentiation; and neutrophil activation. Predicted to be located in nuclear body and transcriptionally active chromatin. Predicted to be part of protein-containing 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)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
