HRX (Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase HRX) functions as histone methyltransferase. HRX methylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3. H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. HRX promotes PPP1R15A-induced apoptosis. HRX interacts with SBF1 and PPP1R15A. HRX is a component of the MLL complex, at least composed of MLL, ASH2L, RBBP5, DPY30, WDR5, MEN1,HCFC1 and HCFC2. Chromosomal aberrations involving MLL are a cause of acute leukemias. A chromosomal aberration involving MLL may be a cause of chronic neutrophilic leukemia. HRX belongs to the histone-lysine methyltransferase family and TRX/MLL subfamily.
