A Basic Post-SET Extension of NSDs Is Essential for Nucleosome Binding In Vitro
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The nuclear receptor SET domain-containing family of proteins (NSD1, NSD2, and NSD3) is known to mono- and dimethylate lysine 36 of histone H3 (H3K36). Overexpression and translocation of NSDs have been widely implicated in a variety of diseases including cancers. Although the substrate specificity of NSDs has been a subject of many valuable studies, the activity of these proteins has never been fully characterized in vitro. In this study, we present full kinetic characterization of NSD1, NSD2, and NSD3 and provide robust in vitro assays suitable for screening these proteins in a 384-well format using nucleosome as a substrate. Through monitoring the changes in substrate specificity of a series of NSD constructs and using molecular modeling, we show that a basic post-SET extension common to all three NSDs (corresponding to residues 1209 to 1226 of NSD2) is essential for proper positioning on nucleosome substrates.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
