About SETDB1

Cytogenetic location: 1q21.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:150,926,263-150,964,737 (from NCBI)

This gene has 20 transcripts (splice variants), 246 orthologues, 19 paralogues and is associated with 79 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 14.6), spleen (RPKM 8.9) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a Histone Methyltransferase which regulates histone methylation, gene silencing, and transcriptional repression. This gene has been identified as a target for treatment in Huntington Disease, given that gene silencing and transcription dysfunction likely play a role in the disease pathogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
