Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase EZH1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the EZH1 gene .[ 5] [ 6]
Function In mice, EZH1 and EZH2 cogovern histone H3K27 trimethylation and are essential for hair follicle homeostasis and wound repair.[ 7] [ 8]
