SET domain (including post-SET domain) found in SET domain-containing protein 1A (SETD1A) and similar proteins SETD1A (EC2.1.1.43), also termed lysine N-methyltransferase 2F, or Set1/Ash2 histone methyltransferase complex subunit SET1, is a histone-lysine N-methyltransferase that specifically methylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (H3K4me), when part of the SET1 histone methyltransferase (HMT) complex, but not if the neighboring 'Lys-9' residue is already methylated. Human SET domain containing protein 1A (hSETD1A) expression occurs at a high rate in hepatocellular carcinoma patients and controls tumor metastasis in breast cancer by activating MMP expression. |
