| Systematic Name | Yjl168cp |
| Alias | Ezl1p |
| ORF Classification | Verified |
| Description | Histone methyltransferase with a role in transcriptional elongation; methylates H3 lysine 36, which suppresses incorporation of acetylated histones and signals for the deacetylation of these histones within transcribed genes; associates with the C-terminal domain of Rpo21p; histone methylation activity is regulated by phosphorylation status of Rpo21p (2, 3, 4, 5, 6) |
