FUSION GENES
DNA/RNA
Description
At least 23 exons. cDNA is 8552 bp, 8088 bp open reading frame
Transcription
Two transcripts: 9.0 and 10 kb
Proteins

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 name
t(5;11)(q35;p15.5)/ acute non lymphoblastic leukemia (AML)
Disease
De novo childhood AML
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 gene
5 NUP98- 3 NSD1 ; NSD1-NUP98 also present in all cases tested
Fusion 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
