The SETD7 protein is a histone methyltransferase that specifically monomethylates H3K4, a mark associated with transcriptional activation. Its role in gene activation extends to the collagenase and insulin genes, specifically at the insulin promoter when IPF1/PDX-1 is recruited. SETD7 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived SETD7 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His labeled tag.
