Summary: Enables histone H3K4 methyltransferase activity and histone H3K9 methyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including decidualization; tarsal gland development; and uterine gland development. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and nucleus. Predicted to be active in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in cerebral cortex; early conceptus; hindlimb muscle; oocyte; and ureter.

Study shows that mutations associated with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) result both in loss of miR-142-3p function and in decreased miR-142-5p expression. During hematopoietic maturation, loss of Mir142 increased ASH1L protein expression and consequently resulted in the aberrant maintenance of Hoxa gene expression in myeloid-committed hematopoietic progenitors.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
