FUSION GENES

DNA/RNA

Description

The gene spans 127 kb on minus strand.

Transcription

2 major transcripts: a short transcript ending after an alternative exon 10b (3995 bp), and a long form from exon 1 to 24 (5428 bp).

Proteins

Description

The long transcript encodes a 1437 aminonacids protein (162 kDa) containing from N-term to C-term: a PWWP (proline-tryptophan-tryptophan-proline) domain, 4 PHD (plant-home domain)- type zinc finger motifs, a second PWWP domain, a SET associated cystein rich domain (SAC), a SET domain, a fifth PHD,and a Cys-His rich domain. The short transcript encodes a 645 amino acids protein (73 kDa) containing only the N-term t PWWP domain.

Expression

wide.

Localisation

putative nuclear location.

Function

may have a regulatory role.

Homology

Mutations

Somatic

a hybrid gene involving WHSC1L1/NSD3 was found in a rare leukemia subtype (see below); amplification of a region containing WHSC1L1/NSD3 was found in a subset of breast cancers (but it remains to be determined which gene, within an amplicon, is the critical gene).

Implicated in

Entity name
t(8;11)(p11;p15) Acute non lymphocytic leukemia with WHSC1L1/NSD3 - NUP98 .
Prognosis
yet unknown: only 1 case with a proven hybrid gene 5 NUP98 - 3 NSD3; 2 other possible cases, but other genes may also be involved.
