Identifiers and Description
Gene Model Identifier
TTHERM_00335780
Standard Name
EZL1 (Enhancer of Zeste-Like 1)
Aliases
PreTt06023 | 34.m00260 | 3689.m00057
Description
EZL1 SET domain protein; Conjugation-specific H3K27 HKMT; responsible for H3K27 methylation associated with developmentally regulated heterochromatin formation and DNA elimination; Ezl1p-catalyzed H3K27 methylation occurs in an RNAi-dependent manner
SET1 Histone methyltransferase
, subunit of the COMPASS (Set1
C) complex; COMPASS methylates
histone H3K4; Set1p-dependent
H3K4 trimethylation recruits
Nrd1p, allowing efficient term
ination of snoRNAs and cryptic
unstable transcripts (CUTs) b
y Nrd1p-Nab3p-Sen1p pathway; m
odulates histone acetylation l
evels in promoter proximal reg
ions to ensure efficient Nrd1p
-dependent termination; requir
ed in transcriptional silencin
g near telomeres and at silent
mating type loci; has a SET d
omain
