Disease

NSD3_HUMAN Note=Defects in WHSC1L1 may be involved in non small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC). Amplified or overexpressed in NSCLC.[1] Note=A chromosomal aberration involving WHSC1L1 is found in childhood acute myeloid leukemia. Translocation t(8;11)(p11.2;p15) with NUP98.

Function

NSD3_HUMAN Histone methyltransferase. Preferentially methylates 'Lys-4' and 'Lys-27' of histone H3. H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation, while 'Lys-27' is a mark for transcriptional repression.[2]
