Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 444984

Summary

Enables chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to ethanol; hepatocyte apoptotic process; and response to vitamin A. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Used to study lung carcinoma and middle cerebral artery infarction. Biomarker of congenital heart disease; hepatocellular carcinoma; and prostatitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia; acute lymphoblastic leukemia; acute myeloid leukemia; myelodysplastic syndrome; and stomach Cancer. Orthologous to human DNMT3A (DNA Methyltransferase 3 alpha). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
