Function

Histone methyltransferase that specifically trimethylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3 using monomethylated H3 'Lys-9' as substrate. H3 'Lys-9' trimethylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression by recruiting HP1 (CBX1, CBX3 and/or CBX5) proteins to methylated histones. Mainly functions in heterochromatin regions, thereby playing a central role in the establishment of constitutive heterochromatin at pericentric and telomere regions. H3 'Lys-9' trimethylation is also required to direct DNA methylation at pericentric repeats. SUV39H1 is targeted to histone H3 via its interaction with RB1 and is involved in many processes, such as cell cycle regulation, transcriptional repression and regulation of telomere length. May participate in regulation of higher-order chromatin organization during spermatogenesis. Recruited by the large PER complex to the E-box elements of the circadian target genes such as PER2 itself or PER1, contributes to the conversion of local chromatin to a heterochromatin-like repressive state through H3 'Lys-9' trimethylation.

Activity summary

KMT1B also known as SUV39H2 is a lysine-specific histone methyltransferase enzyme located on chromosome 10q22.2. It catalyzes the methylation of histone H3 at lysine 9 (H3K9) which condenses chromatin into a more transcriptionally inactive state. KMT1B is approximately 50 kDa in mass and shows highest expression in testis and fetal tissues. It modifies chromatin structure to regulate gene expression patterns affecting cellular processes.

Biological function summary

This protein influences epigenetic constructs by being part of the transcriptional repressor complex. It is involved in gene silencing through the formation of heterochromatin an essential process for maintaining genome stability. KMT1B shares homology with SUV39H1 another histone methyltransferase and both cooperate in establishing heterochromatin markers.

Pathways

KMT1B participates in the transcriptional regulation pathway and intersects with pathways governing cell cycle control. It contributes to the E2F transcriptional repression pathway by interacting with retinoblastoma protein (pRB) which controls cell proliferation. This connection to pRB positions KMT1B as an influential factor in cell cycle checkpoints and progression.

Associated diseases and disorders

KMT1B mutations have associations with neurodevelopmental disorders and some cancers. Its dysregulation can lead to anomalies in chromatin compaction affecting neurological development and potentially promoting oncogenesis. In cancer changes in KMT1B expression relate to abnormal cell growth often linked with parallel alterations in related enzymes like SUV39H1.

    ab190870 was shown to recognize SUV39H2 in wild-type U2-OS cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in SUV39H2 knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and SUV39H2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. The membrane was blocked with 3% Milk. ab190870 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively.
