Cat.No.:  PE-3699
Product Name:  Recombinant NSD2 (MMSET)-SET protein
Product Overview:  Recombinant NSD2 (MMSET)-SET peptide that includes amino acids 942-1240 that contains the SET domain sequence of the human NSD2 (MMSET)-SET protein (accession number NP_579877.1) was expressed in E. coli cells and contains an N-terminal GST-Tag with an observed molecular weight of 60 kDa. The recombinant protein is >90% pure by SDS-PAGE.
Background:  NSD2 (MMSET)-SET (Multiple Myeloma SET domain-containing protein, WHSC1/Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome Candidate 1, Nuclear Receptor binding SET domain protein 2, TRX5, Trithorax 5) is a SET domain-containing histone methyltransferase specific for lysine 36 of histone H3. The NSD2 (MMSET)-SET gene is deleted in Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, a disorder characterized by developmental defects and mental retardation. In 15% of patients with Multiple Myeloma (MM), a chromosomal translocation leads to NSD2 (MMSET)-SET gene being aberrantly placed under the control of the IgH intronic µ enhancer and expressed at very high levels. This event is apparently a key component in cellular transformation leading to MM. Reduction in NSD2 (MMSET)-SET expression in a myeloma cell line suppressed its growth, suggesting a role for NSD2 (MMSET)-SET in maintaining the transformed state. NSD2 (MMSET)-SET includes the SET domain of NSD2 (MMSET)-SET. The SET domain is a 130 to 140 amino acid, evolutionary conserved motif that was initially characterized in the Drosophila proteins Su(var)3-9, EZH2 and TrxG and plays a crucial role in substrate recognition and enzymatic activity.
