DOT1L
DOT1 like histone lysine methyltransferase | DOT1, KIAA1814, KMT4

The protein encoded by this gene is a histone methyltransferase that methylates lysine-79 of histone H3. It is inactive against free core histones, but shows significant histone methyltransferase activity against nucleosomes. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

DOT1L — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating DOT1L 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for DOT1L. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = DOT1L upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to DOT1L

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of DOT1L, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
