Description

DNA methyltransferase 3 beta

Gene Summary

Enables chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to dexamethasone stimulus; cellular response to hyperoxia; and response to vitamin A. Predicted to be located in chromosome, centromeric region; heterochromatin; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of catalytic complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Biomarker of anxiety disorder; congenital heart disease; fetal alcohol spectrum disorder; hepatocellular carcinoma; and prostatitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autoimmune disease (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy 4; immunodeficiency-centromeric instability-facial anomalies syndrome 1; and thymoma. Orthologous to human DNMT3B (DNA methyltransferase 3 beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]
