Gene details (from Flybase) It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster.
There is experimental evidence that it has the molecular function: histone methyltransferase activity (H4-K20 specific).
There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: histone methylation; histone H4-K20 dimethylation; regulation of gene expression, epigenetic; histone H4-K20 trimethylation.
14 alleles are reported.
No phenotypic data is available.
It has 2 annotated transcripts and 2 annotated polypeptides.
Protein features are: SET domain.
Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of high expression to a trough of moderate expression.
Peak expression observed within 00-06 hour embryonic stages, in adult female stages.
