About Ehmt2

Primary_assembly 20: 3,919,624-3,941,547 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026993.1

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 210 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 16 phenotypes. Biased expression in Adrenal (RPKM 211.8), Kidney (RPKM 174.5) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including C2H2 zinc finger domain binding activity; histone-lysine N-methyltransferase activity; and p53 binding activity. Involved in several processes, including long-term memory; regulation of histone methylation; and response to fungicide. Located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Orthologous to human EHMT2 (euchromatic histone lysine methyltransferase 2).
