histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2A; lysine N-methyltransferase 2A; ALL-1; CXXC-type zinc finger protein 7; myeloid/lymphoid or mixed-lineage leukemia protein 1; trithorax-like protein; zinc finger protein HRX; contains: MLL cleavage product N320; N-terminal cleavage product of 320 kDa; p320; contains: MLL cleavage product C180; C-terminal cleavage product of 180 kD; p180 (KMT2A, ALL1, CXXC7, HRX, HTRX, MLL, MLL1)
Function:
- histone methyltransferase
- methylates Lys-4 of histone H3
- histone H3 Lys-4 methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation
- promotes PPP1R15A-induced apoptosis
- interacts with SBF1 & PPP1R15A
- component of the MLL complex
S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone L-lysine S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone N(6)-methyl-L-lysine
Structure:
- belongs to the histone-lysine methyltransferase family, TRX/MLL subfamily
- contains 3 A.T hook DNA-binding domains
- contains 1 bromo domain
- contains 1 CXXC-type Zn+2 finger
- contains 3 PHD-type Zn+2 fingers
- contains 1 post-SET domain
- contains 1 SET domain
Compartment: nucleus
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3
Expression: heart, lung, brain & T- & B-lymphocytes
Pathology:
- mutations in KMT2A associated with Wiedemann-Steiner syndrome
- chromosomal aberrations involving MLL are a cause of acute leukemias translocation t(1;11)(q21;q23) with MLLT11/AF1Q translocation t(3;11)(p21;q23) with NCKIPSD/AF3p21 translocation t(3,11)(q25,q23) with GMPS translocation t(4;11)(q21;q23) with AFF1/MLLT2/AF4 insertion ins (5;11)(q31;q13q23) with AFF4/AF5Q31 translocation t(5;11)(q12;q23) with AF5-alpha/CENPK translocation t(6;11)(q27;q23) with MLLT4/AF6 translocation t(9;11)(p22;q23) with MLLT3/AF9 translocation t(10;11)(p11.2;q23) with ABI1 translocation t(10;11)(p12;q23) with MLLT10/AF10 translocation t(11;15)(q23;q14) with CASC5 & ZFYVE19 translocation t(11;17)(q23;q21) with MLLT6/AF17 translocation t(11;19)(q23;p13.3) with ELL translocation t(11;19)(q23;p13.3) with MLLT1/ENL translocation t(11;19)(q23;p23) with GAS7 translocation t(X;11)(q13;q23) with FOXO4/AFX1 translocation t(3;11)(q28;q23) with LPP translocation t(10;11)(q22;q23) with TET1 translocation t(9;11)(q34;q23) with DAB2IP translocation t(4;11)(p12;q23) with FRYL
- fusion proteins MLL-MLLT1, MLL-MLLT3 & MLL-ELL interact with PPP1R15A &, on the contrary to unfused MLL, inhibit PPP1R15A- induced apoptosis
- chromosomal translocation t(4;11)(q21;q23) involving MLL with SEPT11 may be a cause of chronic neutrophilic leukemia
