| General Information | Comment | Organism |

| physiological function | microRNA, miR-152-3p is involved in the regulation of SETDB1 protein levels and plays a positive regulatory role for SETDB1 expression. Inhibition of miR-152-3p results in a robust reduction in SETDB1 protein levels, though SETDB1 mRNA levels are unaffected. This is accompanied by a blockade of the biochemical pathway proceeding from H3K9me2 to H3K9me3. H3K9me2 accumulates in cells treated with an anti-miR that targets miR-152-3p. The action of a miR-152-3p mimic increases flux of the reaction leading to H3K9me3 | Homo sapiens |
| physiological function | SETDB1 is a major enzyme for H3K9 histone methylation in heterochromatin | Homo sapiens |
