Mecom - MDS1 and EVI1 complex locus Gene
Also Known as Jbo; Mds; Evi1; Mds1; Evi-1; Prdm3; Znfpr1b1; Mds1-Evi1; D630039M04Rik
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and Histone Methyltransferase activity (H3-K9 specific). Involved in hematopoietic stem cell proliferation; heterochromatin organization; and negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; embryonic limb morphogenesis; and positive regulation of brown fat cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study otitis media. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myeloid neoplasm. Orthologous to human MECOM (MDS1 and EVI1 complex locus). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
