ZMYND10

Description

The ZMYND10 gene encodes a protein that plays a crucial role in chromatin regulation, a process that influences gene expression. This protein, known as ZMYND10, acts as a reader of histone modifications, specifically H3K4me3, a mark associated with active transcription. ZMYND10 interacts with other proteins to fine-tune gene expression, influencing various cellular processes. Its dysregulation has been implicated in a range of human diseases.

Associated Diseases

• Cancer (e.g., leukemia, breast cancer, colorectal cancer)
• Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., autism spectrum disorder)
• Cardiovascular disease
• Immune disorders

Did you know?

ZMYND10 is highly conserved across various species, suggesting its fundamental importance in biological processes.
