Biological function summary
KMT2A functions within a multi-protein complex often referred to as a histone methyltransferase complex. This includes core components like RbBP5 WDR5 and ASH2L. These components stabilize KMT2A and aid its enzymatic activity. KMT2A's role in chromatin remodeling is essential for the regulation of critical genes including Hox gene clusters which play a part in shaping body patterning during development.
Pathways
KMT2A's function is integrated within the epigenetic regulation and cell cycle control pathways. It interacts closely with proteins like Menin and LEDGF assisting in regulating the transcription of homeotic genes. KMT2A’s methylation activity also plays a role in DNA repair mechanisms underlining pathways that ensure genomic stability.
