FUSION GENES

DNA/RNA

Description

The gene contains at least 15 exons and 14 introns.

Transcription

Two alternative splice variants: p75 and p52.

Proteins

Description

530 amino acids (p75), 333 amino acids (p52); N-term - PWWP (proline-tryptophan-tryptophan-proline) domain   NLS (nuclear localization signal)   AT-hook-like   Coiled coil   IBD (integrase binding domain)   HTH1 (helix-turn-helix DNA binding motif)   HTH2   C-term.

Expression

Expression of PSIP1 has been reported to be increased in human breast and bladder cancer, prostate tumorsand benign prostate hyperplasia.

Localisation

nuclear.

Function

Transcriptional regulation of stress-associated genes, mRNA splicing and cell survival. The involvement of PSIP1 (LEDGF) has been reported in human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) integration, autoimmune disorders, and neurogenesis. Recent data reveal LEDGF as an oncogenic protein that controls a caspase-independent lysosomal cell death pathway.

Homology

PSIP1 belongs to the hepatoma-derived growth factor (HDGF) family of proteins that contain a well conserved N-terminal amino acid sequence known as the HATH (homologous to amino terminus of HDGF) region.

Implicated in

Note
acute non lymphoblastic leukemia (AML), one case of transformed .
Hybrid gene
5NUP98 - 3PSIP1.
Fusion protein
fuses the GLFG repeat domains of NUP98 to the COOH-terminus of PSIP1.
