products description :
CpG methylation is an epigenetic modification that is important for embryonic development, imprinting, and X-chromosome inactivation. Studies in mice have demonstrated that DNA methylation is required for mammalian development. This gene encodes a DNA methyltransferase which is thought to function in de novo methylation, rather than maintenance methylation. The protein localizes primarily to the nucleus and its expression is developmentally regulated. Mutations in this gene cause the immunodeficiency-centromeric instability-facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome. Six alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. The full length sequences of variants 4 and 5 have not been determined. [NCBI Entrez Gene Summary]

uniprot summary :
DNMT3B: a ubiquitous DNA methyltransferase required for genome wide de novo methylation and essential for development. DNA methylation is coordinated with methylation of histones. Numerous cancer cell lines and primary acute leukemias express aberrant DNMT3B transcripts, especially DNMT3B7. Transfection of DNMT3B7 into 293 cells alters the pattern of genes expressed in the transfected cells. Can interact with DNMT1, which might be a co-operative event during DNA methylation. Methylates CpG sites at a rate slower than DNMT3A and much slower than DNMT1. Interacts with SUV39H1, SETDB1, SUMO1 and UBE2I9. Interacts with DNMT1 and DNMT3A. Mutations in DNMT3B have been shown to cause immunodeficiency-centromeric instability-facial anomalies syndrome (ICF). Six alternatively spliced isoforms of the human protein have been reported. Isoform 1 is expressed in all tissues except brain, skeletal muscle and PBMC, 3 is ubiquitous, 4 is expressed in all tissues except brain, skeletal muscle, lung and prostate and 5 is detectable only in testis and at very low level in brain and prostate. Isoforms 4 and 5 are probably not enzymatically active due to the deletion of two conserved methyltransferase motifs.
