WHSC1 also known as NSD2 is a histone methyltransferase enzyme involved in the methylation of lysine 36 on histone H3. This enzyme facilitates the addition of a methyl group which affects chromatin structure and gene expression. NSD2 is also called WHSC1L1 or Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome candidate 1-like 1. It has a molecular weight around 153 kDa. Researchers observe the expression of WHSC1/NSD2 predominantly in the nucleus but it is present in various tissues including lymphoid organs and certain types of cancer cells.
Biological function summary
WHSC1/NSD2 functions as an epigenetic regulator modifying histones to modulate transcriptional activity. It exists as part of a larger protein complex that includes several chromatin-associated proteins. Its role in histone methylation influences gene expression impacting cell differentiation survival and proliferation. Through controlling gene transcription WHSC1/NSD2 plays a significant role in development and cellular responses to environmental signals.
Pathways
WHSC1/NSD2 participates in key biological processes such as the cell cycle and DNA damage response pathways. It influences histone modification pathways by interacting with other proteins like SETD2 and H3K36me3 which are important for maintaining genomic integrity. In the DNA damage response NSD2 works together with proteins such as ATM coordinating repair mechanisms and cell cycle progression.
Alterations in WHSC1/NSD2 expression or function associate with multiple myeloma and Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome. In multiple myeloma overexpression or mutations of WHSC1/NSD2 lead to altered gene expression profiles and promote cancer cell proliferation. Within this context NSD2 often interacts with MMSET and FGFR3 proteins contributing to oncogenic transformation. Additionally mutations in WHSC1/NSD2 link to Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome a genetic condition characterized by growth delay and intellectual disability.
