SET and MYND domain-containing protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SMYD3 gene.[1]

SMYD3 is a histone methyltransferase that plays a role in transcriptional regulation as a member of an RNA polymerase complex.[1]

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of SMYD3 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Smyd3tm2a(KOMP)Wtsi[6][7] 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 — at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.[8][9][10]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[4][11] Twenty three tests were carried out on homozygous mutant adult mice, however no significant abnormalities were observed.[4]

Interactions

SMYD3 has been shown to interact with Heat shock protein 90kDa alpha (cytosolic), member A1[12] and POLR2A.[12]

SMYD3 trimethylates a lysine residue on MAP3K2, which causes crosstalk into the MAP kinase signaling pathway in Ras-driven cancers.[13]
