Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SETMAR is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the SETMAR gene.

Model organisms

Setmar knockout mouse phenotype. SETMAR is found only in anthropoid primates. Therefore, the knockout mouse is not for SETMAR but only the SET domain of this chimeric fusion protein.

Model organisms have been used in the study of SETMAR function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Setmar^{tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi} was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion. Twenty five tests were carried out on mutant mice and two significant abnormalities were observed. Homozygous mutant animals of both sex had abnormal retinal pigmentation and morphology, while males also had atypical peripheral blood lymphocyte parameters.
