Cat.No.:  PE-3708
Product Name:  Recombinant KMT2B (MLL4)-SET protein
Product Overview:  The peptide corresponding to amino acids 2551 - 2715 of the KMT2B (MLL4)-SET protein (accession number NP_055542.1) was expressed in E. coli. The peptide contains the SET domain of MLL4 that is responsible for methyltransferase activity. Recombinant KMT2B (MLL4)-SET contains an N-terminal GST-Tag with a molecular weight of 45.2 kDa.
Background:  KMT2B (MLL4, Myeloid/lymphoid or mixed-lineage leukemia)-SET is a Trithorax-group protein that function collectively to promote gene expression. KMT2B (MLL4)-SET is a histone methyltransferase that methylates the Lysine 4 position of histone H3. In particular, the SET domain is a conserved C-terminal domain that characterizes proteins of the MLL (mixed-lineage leukemia) family. The SET domain is responsible for its histone methyltransferase activity which mediates chromatin modifications associated with epigenetic transcriptional activation. H3K4 methylation represents a specific epigenetic tag for transcriptional activation. KMT2B (MLL4)-SET plays a central role in β-globin locus transcription regulation by being recruited by Nfe2. KMT2B (MLL4)-SET is also required during the transcriptionally active period of oocyte growth for the establishment and/or maintenance of bulk H3K4 trimethylation (H3K4me3), global transcriptional silencing that precedes resumption of meiosis, oocyte survival and normal zygotic genome activation. KMT2B (MLL4)-SET may also be involved in human cancer as its expression has been shown to be upregulated in solid tumor cell lines.
Applications:  Suitable for use in the study of enzyme kinetics, inhibitor screening, and selectivity profiling.
