Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
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 early conceptus; hindlimb muscle; oocyte; and ureter. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant intellectual developmental disorder 52. Orthologous to human ASH1L (ASH1 like histone lysine methyltransferase).
