Cat.No.:  PE-3711
Product Name:  Recombinant KMT2A (MLL1)-SET protein
Product Overview:  The peptide corresponding to amino acids 3735 - 3973 of the KMT2A (MLL1) protein (accession number NP_001184033.1) was expressed in E. coli. The peptide contains the SET domain of MLL that is responsible for methyltransferase activity. Recombinant MLL / HRX - SET contains an N-terminal GST-Tag with a molecular weight of 53.7 kDa. The recombinant protein is >92% pure by SDS-PAGE.
Background:  Myeloid/lymphoid or mixed-lineage leukemia (trithorax homolog, Drosophila), or MLL, also known as KMT2A or HRX, is a Trithorax-group protein that function collectively to promote gene expression. MLL is a transcriptional coactivator that plays an essential role in regulating gene expression during early development and hematopoiesis. The protein contains multiple conserved functional domains. In particular, the SET domain is a conserved C-terminal domain that characterizes proteins of the MLL (mixed-lineage leukemia) family. The SET domain is responsible for its histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) methyltransferase activity which mediates chromatin modifications associated with epigenetic transcriptional activation. This protein is processed by the enzyme Taspase 1 into two fragments, MLL-C and MLL-N. These fragments reassociate and further assemble into different multiprotein complexes that regulate the transcription of specific target genes, including many of the HOX genes. Multiple chromosomal translocations involving this gene are the cause of certain acute lymphoid leukemias and acute myeloid leukemias. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Applications:  Suitable for use in the study of enzyme kinetics, inhibitor screening, and selectivity profiling.
