Gene: SETD6
Alternate names for this Gene: -
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a methyltransferase that adds a methyl group to the histone H2AZ, which is involved in nuclear receptor-dependent transcription. The protein also interacts with several endogenous proteins which are involved in nuclear hormone receptor signaling. A related pseudogene is located on chromosome 2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 16
Location in Chromosome : 16q21
Description of this Gene: SET domain containing 6, protein lysine methyltransferase
Type of Gene: protein-coding
