Histone methyltransferase KMT2A: developmental regulation to oncogenic transformation
Open accessAbstract
Our current understanding of epigenetic regulation is deeply rooted in the founding contributions of Dr C. David Allis. In 2002, Allis and colleagues first characterized the lysine methyltransferase activity of the mammalian KMT2A (MLL1), a paradigm-shifting discovery that brings epigenetic dysregulation into focus for many human diseases that carry KMT2A mutations. This review will discuss the current understanding of the multifaceted roles of KMT2A in development and disease, which has paved the way for innovative and upcoming approaches to cancer therapy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
