Comment on list classification: In OMIM this gene is associated with OMIM - Kleefstra syndrome 2 617768. Kleefstra et al. (2012) (PMID:22726846) report case of 1 family with individual with nonsense mutation in MLL3 (now called KMT2C) and intellectual disability. Koemans et al 2017 (PMID:29069077) report 5 cases with SNVs in KMT2C, 2 with mild, 2 moderate and 1 severe ID. They also report that knockdown of the Drosophila ortholog of KMT2C results in the misregulation of an overlapping set of genes to the ortholog of EHMT1 also implicated in ID. Faundes et al 2018 (PMID:29276005) reports 3 more cases of individuals with SNVs in KMT2C and severe ID.
