Protein attributes

Sequence length	1312 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Probable histone methyltransferase By similarity. Essential protein required to maintain expression of homeotic genes egl-5 and mab-5. May play an analogous role to the trithorax Group (trxG) proteins. TrxG proteins form multiprotein complexes that are required to maintain the transcriptionally active state of homeotic genes throughout development. May act via a modification of chromatin.
Catalytic activity	S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone L-lysine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone N(6)-methyl-L-lysine.
Subcellular location	Nucleus Probable.
Tissue specificity	Widely expressed throughout embryonic development and into adulthood. Ref.1
Developmental stage	Expressed from mid-blastula.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the histone-lysine methyltransferase family. SET2 subfamily. Contains 1 AWS domain. Contains 1 BAH domain. Contains 1 PHD-type zinc finger. Contains 1 SET domain.
