Summary
Predicted to enable histone H3K79 methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA damage checkpoint signaling; DNA repair; and subtelomeric heterochromatin formation. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute biphenotypic leukemia. Orthologous to human DOT1L (DOT1 like histone lysine methyltransferase).
