Lysine N-methyltransferase 2C (KMT2C) also known as myeloid/lymphoid or mixed-lineage leukemia protein 3 (MLL3) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the KMT2C gene.[4][5]

Function

[edit]

This gene is a member of the myeloid/lymphoid or mixed-lineage leukemia (MLL) family and encodes a nuclear protein with an AT-hook DNA-binding domain, a DHHC-type zinc finger, six PHD-type zinc fingers, a SET domain, a post-SET domain and a RING-type zinc finger. This protein is a member of the ASC-2/NCOA6 complex (ASCOM), which possesses histone methylation activity and is involved in transcriptional coactivation. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.[5]

Interactions

[edit]

MLL3 has been shown to interact with NCOA6[6] and RBBP5.[6]

Clinical significance

[edit]

Mutations of the KMT2C gene cause Kleefstra syndrome-2, a neurodevelopmental disorder first described in 2012.[7]
