Disease
AF9_HUMAN A chromosomal aberration involving MLLT3 is associated with acute leukemias. Translocation t(9;11)(p22;q23) with KMT2A/MLL1. The result is a rogue activator protein.
Function
AF9_HUMAN Component of the super elongation complex (SEC), a complex required to increase the catalytic rate of RNA polymerase II transcription by suppressing transient pausing by the polymerase at multiple sites along the DNA.[1] [2]
