Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SETMAR is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the SETMAR gene.[1][2]

Model organisms[edit | edit source]

Model organisms have been used in the study of SETMAR function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Setmartm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi[9][10] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[11][12][13]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[7][14] Twenty five tests were carried out on mutant mice and two significant abnormalities were observed.[7] Homozygous mutant animals of both sex had abnormal retinal pigmentation and morphology, while males also had atypical peripheral blood lymphocyte parameters.[7]
