Monoclonal Anti-SET (mouse IgA isotype) is derived from the hybridoma SET7 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from immunized BALB/c mice. The SET nuclear proto-oncogene (SET7) protein localizes both to the nucleus and the cytoplasm.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human SET, conjugated to KLH. The isotype is determined by ELISA using Mouse Monoclonal Antibody Isotyping Reagents (Sigma ISO-2).
Application
Monoclonal Anti-SET antibody produced in mouse has been used in immunoblotting and flow cytometry.
Biochem/physiol Actions
SET nuclear proto-oncogene (SET7) is involved in the regulation of signal transduction in normal and cancer cells. It contains a highly acidic C-terminal region that is involved in chromatin remodeling. In fact, SET itself is also a potent and specific inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity and exerts its activity via its N-terminal region. SET also acts as an inhibitor of the tumor suppressor NM23-H1, which is activated by granzyme A DNAse and negatively controls histone acetylation. Interestingly, in acute non-lymphocytic myeloid leukemia, SET was found to be fused to CAN (nucleoporin Nup214), apparently as a result of a chromosomal translocation. As such, the formation of this SET-CAN fusion protein may impair the normal regulation of PP2A and contribute to leukemogenesis. SET was also found to regulate human NK-cell cytotoxicity, by regulating NK-cell IFN-g production and granzyme B gene expression via PP2A inactivation.
