NCBI Protein Information
histone-lysine N-methyltransferase, H3 lysine-9 specific SUVH3-like protein
NCBI Summary
Encodes a SU(VAR)3-9 homolog, a SET domain protein. Known SET domain proteins are involved in epigenetic control of gene expression and act as histone methyltransferases. There are 10 SUVH genes in Arabidopsis and members of this subfamily of the SET proteins have an additional conserved SRA domain. A paternally expressed imprinted gene.
