About HDGFL2

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:4,472,297-4,502,207 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 220 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 20.4), brain (RPKM 10.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the hepatoma-derived growth factor (HDGF) family. The protein includes an N-terminal PWWP domain that binds to methyl-lysine-containing histones, with specific binding of this protein to tri-methylated lysines 36 and 79 of histone H3, and di- and tri-methylated lysine 20 of histone H4. The protein functions in LEDGF/p75-independent HIV-1 replication by determining HIV-1 integration site selection. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.
