An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase KMT5B is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the KMT5B gene.[1][2][3] The enzyme along with WHSC1 is responsible for dimethylation of lysine 20 on histone H4 in mouse and humans.[4][5]

This gene encodes a protein that contains a SET domain. SET domains appear to be protein-protein interaction domains that mediate interactions with a family of proteins that display similarity with dual-specificity phosphatases (dsPTPases). Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.[3]
