KMT2C
KMT2C (Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2C) is a protein that switches other genes on and off. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, an oncogene driver, a tumour suppressor and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Breast cancer, Prostate cancer, Bladder & urothelial cancer and 5 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
Histone methyltransferase that catalyses methyl group transfer from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the epsilon-amino group of 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (H3K4). Part of chromatin remodeling machinery predominantly forms H3K4me1 methylation marks at active chromatin sites where transcription and DNA repair take place. Likely plays a redundant role with KMT2D in enriching H3K4me1 mark on primed and active enhancer elements. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 7q36.1 (HGNC).
