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). |
Protein |
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 | NSD1, WHSC1/NSD2 . |
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 |
Note | |
Entity | 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. |
To be noted |
This region in 8p11.2 seems to be derived from a duplication of 4p16.3 with similar genes WHSC1L1, FGFR1, and TACC1 in 8p11 from pter, and TACC3, FGFR3, and WHSC1 in 4p16 from pter |
