| UniProt code: Q9BVI0. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Methyllysine-binding protein, component of the MOF histone acetyltransferase protein complex. Not required for maintaining the global histone H4 'Lys-16' acetylation (H4K16ac) levels or locus specific histone acetylation, but instead works downstream in transcriptional regulation of MOF target genes (By similarity). As part of the NSL complex it may be involved in acetylation of nucleosomal histone H4 on several lysine residues. Contributes to methyllysine- dependent p53/TP53 stabilization and up-regulation after DNA damage. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20018852, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22864287}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Component of some MLL1/MLL complex, at least composed of the core components KMT2A/MLL1, ASH2L, HCFC1, WDR5 and RBBP5, as well as the facultative components BAP18, CHD8, E2F6, HSP70, INO80C, KANSL1, LAS1L, MAX, MCRS1, MGA, KAT8/MOF, PELP1, PHF20, PRP31, RING2, RUVB1/TIP49A, RUVB2/TIP49B, SENP3, TAF1, TAF4, TAF6, TAF7, TAF9 and TEX10. Component of the NSL complex at least composed of MOF/KAT8, KANSL1, KANSL2, KANSL3, MCRS1, PHF20, OGT1/OGT, WDR5 and HCFC1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15960975, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20018852, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22864287}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20018852}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Expressed in heart, kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, placenta, spleen and testis. Not expressed in brain, skeletal muscle, colon, ovary, prostate, small intestine and thymus. Expressed in colon and ovary cancer cell lines while it is not expressed in the respective normal tissues. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12097419}. | |
| Domain: | The Tudor domain 2 mediates reading of dimethyl-lysine residues. | |
| Domain: | The Tudor domain 1 doesn't bind dimethyl-lysine residues, due to an atypical and occluded aromatic cage. | |
| Miscellaneous: | Antibodies against PHF20 are present in sera from patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, glioblastoma and childhood medulloblastula. | |
| Sequence caution: | Sequence=AAF34184.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=AAK19748.1; Type=Frameshift; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; | |
