DESCRIPTION

Also known as ENL_HUMAN, MLLT1, ENL, LTG19, YEATS1. Chromatin reader component of the super elongation complex (SEC), a complex required to increase the catalytic rate of RNA polymerase II transcription by suppressing transient pausing by the polymerase at multiple sites along the DNA (PubMed:20159561, PubMed:20471948). Specifically recognizes and binds acetylated and crotonylated histones, with a preference for histones that are crotonylated (PubMed:27105114). Has a slightly higher affinity for binding histone H3 crotonylated at 'Lys-27' (H3K27cr) than 'Lys-20' (H3K9cr20) (PubMed:27105114)., Acts as a key chromatin reader in acute myeloid leukemia by recognizing and binding to acetylated histones via its YEATS domain, thereby regulating oncogenic gene transcription. Component of the super elongation complex (SEC), at least composed of EAF1, EAF2, CDK9, MLLT3/AF9, AFF (AFF1 or AFF4), the P-TEFb complex and ELL (ELL, ELL2 or ELL3) (PubMed:20159561, PubMed:20471948, PubMed:22195968). Interacts with ALKBH4 (PubMed:23145062). Component of a SWI/SNF-like EBAFb complex, at least composed of SMARCA4/BRG1/BAF190A, SMARCB1/BAF47/SNF5, ACTL6A/BAF53A, SMARCE1/BAF57, SMARCD1/BAF60A, SMARCD2/BAF60B, SMARCC1/BAF155, SMARCC2/BAF170, ARID1B/BAF250B, MLLT1/ENL and actin (PubMed:12665591).
