Facts about Male-specific lethal 1 homolog.
Greatly enhances MSL2 E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, promoting monoubiquitination of histone H2B at'Lys-35' (H2BK34Ub). This modification then stimulates histone H3 methylation at'Lys-5' (H3K4me) and'Lys-80' (H3K79me) and leads to gene activation, such as that of HOXA9 and MEIS1.
