KMT5B

Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase KMT5B is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the KMT5B gene.^[5][6][7] The enzyme along with NSD2 is responsible for dimethylation of lysine 20 on histone H4 in mouse and humans.^[8][9]

This gene encodes a protein that contains a SET domain. SET domains appear to be protein-protein interaction domains that mediate interactions with a family of proteins that display similarity with dual-specificity phosphatases (dsPTPases). Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.^[7]
