Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates lysine-79 of histone H3. It is inactive against free core histones, but shows significant histone methyltransferase activity against nucleosomes. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011],
Function
catalytic activity:S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone L-lysine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone N(6)-methyl-L-lysine.,function:Histone methyltransferase. Methylates 'Lys-79' of histone H3. Nucleosomes are preferred as substrate compared to free histones. Binds to DNA.,miscellaneous:In contrast to other lysine histone methyltransferase, it does not contain a SET domain, suggesting the existence of another mechanism for methylation of lysine residues of histones.,similarity:Belongs to the DOT1 family.,
