About Kmt5a

Summary

Predicted to enable histone-lysine N-methyltransferase activity; p53 binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; peptidyl-lysine monomethylation; and regulation of DNA damage response, signal transduction by p53 class mediator. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Orthologous to human KMT5A (lysine methyltransferase 5A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
