EEF1AKMT4, Official Symbol EEF1AKMT4provided by HGNC Official Full Name EEF1A lysine methyltransferase 4provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:53611 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000284753 AllianceGenome:HGNC:53611 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status VALIDATED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Summary This gene encodes a member of the lysine-specific methyltransferase (KMT) family. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the methylation of lysine-36 of the eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 alpha. Methylation by this enzyme may affect endoplasmic reticulum-related processes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017] Annotation information Note: This gene was annotated as ECE2 (GeneID:9718) until recently in Annotation Release 108. It is now annotated as an independent gene adjacent to GeneID:1978 based on published reports (PMID 28520920). [05 Jul 2017] Orthologs mouse all
