Official Full Name: SET domain bifurcated histone lysine methyltransferase 1
Also known as: ESET; KG1T; KMT1E; TDRD21; H3-K9-HMTase4
This gene encodes a histone methyltransferase that regulates histone methylation, gene silencing and transcriptional repression. Considering that gene silencing and transcriptional dysfunction may play a role in the pathogenesis of HD, this gene has been identified as a target for HD therapy. Alternative splicing transcript variants of this gene have been described.
