Description
Predicted to have histone-lysine N-methyltransferase activity; p53 binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in camera-type eye photoreceptor cell differentiation; exocrine pancreas development; and regulation of histone H3-K9 methylation. Predicted to localize to chromosome and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Is expressed in brain; eye; and intestine. Orthologous to human EHMT2 (euchromatic histone lysine methyltransferase 2).
