Summary: Enables RNA binding activity and protein-lysine N-methyltransferase activity. Contributes to histone H3K4 methyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including DNA metabolic process; ascospore formation; and regulation of gene expression. Part of Set1C/COMPASS complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in early-onset epilepsy 2 and neurodevelopmental disorder with speech impairment and dysmorphic facies. Orthologous to human SETD1A (SET domain containing 1A, histone lysine methyltransferase) and SETD1B (SET domain containing 1B, histone lysine methyltransferase).

EC 2.1.1.354

Histone methyltransferase, subunit of the COMPASS (Set1C) complex; COMPASS methylates histone H3K4; Set1p-dependent H3K4 trimethylation recruits Nrd1p, allowing efficient termination of snoRNAs and cryptic unstable transcripts (CUTs) by Nrd1p-Nab3p-Sen1p pathway; modulates histone acetylation levels in promoter proximal regions to ensure efficient Nrd1p-dependent termination; required in transcriptional silencing near telomeres and at silent mating type loci; has a SET domain
