PROTEIN
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • serine/proline rich nuclear protein
  • C-terminal domain from MLLT1 is required for optimal interaction with DOT1L
  • HOMOLOGY
    intraspecies homolog to mllt3
    Homologene
    FAMILY
    CATEGORY DNA associated , transcription factor
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,nucleus
    basic FUNCTION
  • activating transcription in lymphoid and myeloid cells
  • involved in essential developmental processes and suggest that expression patterns of MLL fusion partners may influence the lineage of MLL-associated leukemias (Doty 2002)
  • may have a function in histone modification and transcriptional elongation (Mueller 2007)
  • MLLT1 protein isoforms display distinct stage-specific expression during spermiogenesis and adult tissues
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, transcription, regulation

    INTERACTION

    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • binding to c-Abl interactor protein (SSH3BP1) with CBX8
  • the entire C-terminal domain from MLLT1 is required for optimal interaction with DOT1L, which is consistent with the reports that helical segments are essential for the transformation potential of MLL-MLLT1 fusion protein
  • direct interaction between MLLT3/MLLT1 and DOT1L and for optimal interaction an intact C-terminal domain in MLL fusion proteins is critical

    disruption of interaction between DOT1L and MLLT3/MLLT1 is a promising therapeutic strategy with potentially fewer adverse effects than enzymatic inhibition of DOT1L for KMT2A fusion protein-associated leukemia
