General description

Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome candidate 1 protein (WHSC1), Nuclear SET domain containing protein 2 (NSD2) is a histone lysine methyltransferase that is deregulated in a subgroup of multiple myelomas. NSD proteins have been described to serve as oncogenes; however, little is known about their targets in transcriptional repression or activation. NSD2 is overexpressed in multiple myelomas via translocation between the NSD2 locus on chromosome 4 and the immunoglobulin locus on chromosome 14. NSD2 is under the regulatory control of this immunoglobulin locus. Further research is required to elucidate its roles and mechanisms in cancer.

Immunogen

GST-tagged recombinant protein corresponding to human WHSC1/NSD2.

Application

Detect WHSC1/NSD2 using this Anti-WHSC1/NSD2 Antibody, clone 29D1 validated for use in Western Blotting, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP), Immunoprecipitation.
Western Blot Analysis: 0.5-1 µg/mL from a representative lot detected WHSC1/NSD2 in 10 µg of HeLa nuclear extract and human placenta tissue lysate.

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory to detect WHSC1/NSD2 in transfected Gal4-reporter/293T cells. (Marango, J., et al. (2008). Blood. 111:3145-3154.)

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory to detect WHSC1/NSD2 in KMS11 cells. (Marango, J., et al. (2008). Blood. 111:3145-3154.)

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in HCT116 cell lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL of this antibody detected WHSC1/NSD2 in 10 µg of HCT116 cell lysate.

Histone H3K27M is a driving mutation in diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), a deadly pediatric brain tumor. H3K27M reshapes the epigenome through a global inhibition of PRC2 catalytic activity and displacement of H3K27me2/3, promoting oncogenesis of DIPG. As a consequence
