NSD1 (Nuclear receptor-binding, su(var), enhancer-of-zeste and trithorax domain-containing protein 1
| Identity |
| HGNC | NSD1 |
| Location | 5q35 |
| DNA/RNA |
| Description | At least 23 exons. cDNA is 8552 bp, 8088 bp open reading frame |
| Transcription | Two transcripts: 9.0 and 10 kb |
| Protein |
 | |
| Description | 2696 amino acids. Murine Nsd1 is a nuclear protein containing SET, proline-tryptophan-tryptophan-proline (PWWP) and plant homedomain protein (PHD) finger domains. The protein has two distinct nuclear receptor (NR)-interaction domains (NID-L, NID+L). Human NSD1 shows 86% identity to the murine Nsd1 at the nucleotide level and 83% at the amino acid level, retaining the nuclear interaction domains (NID) as well as the SET/SAC and PHD finger domains. |
| Expression | Widely expressed |
| Function | Features of a basic transcription factor, also of a bifunctional transcriptional regulator, (similar to murine Nsd1) |
| Homology | NSD2: (Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome critical region on 4p); NSD3: expressed in tumour cell lines |
| Implicated in |
| Entity | t(5;11)(q35;p15.5)/ acute non lymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL) |
| Disease | De novo childhood ANLL |
| Prognosis | Only 5 cases reported. All had poor response to treatment/short survival |
| Cytogenetics | Cryptic: associated with del(5q) (sole cytogenetic abnormality) or a normal karyotype |
| Hybrid/Mutated Gene | 5' NUP98- 3' NSD1 ; NSD1-NUP98 also present in all cases tested |
| Abnormal Protein | NH2 NUP98- COOH NSD1: Fuses the FXFG portion of NUP98 to the SET, SAC and PHD finger domains of NSD1. NSD1-NUP98: Fuses the RNA-binding domain of NSD1 to the NID domain NUP98 |
