SET domain (including post-SET domain) found in catalytic component of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae COMPASS complex and similar proteins The family contains mostly fungal SET domains, including SET1 found in the catalytic component of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae COMPASS (complex of proteins associated with Set1). SET1 is a histone-lysine N-methyltransferase that specifically methylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (H3K4me), when part of the SET1 histone methyltransferase (HMT) complex. The activity of this catalytic domain is established through forming a complex with a set of core proteins; it is extensively contacted by Cps60 (Bre2), Cps50 (Swd1), and Cps30 (Swd3).
