DOT1-like histone H3K79 methyltransferase (DOT1L) is a gene that encodes a protein that functions as a histone meythltransferase that methylates lysine-79 of histone H3. Missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, frameshift insertions, and in-frame deletions are observed in cancers such as intestinal cancer, stomach cancer, and cancers of the urinary tract.
