Background InformationPRDM2, also known as RIZ1, is a nuclear protein containing 8 zinc finger motifs. It contains an RB-binding motif that is related to that of the adenovirus E1A oncoprotein; RIZ also shares an antigenic epitope with the C- terminus of E1A. It is expressed in human retinoblastoma cells and at low levels in all other human cell lines examined. RIZ1 is a tumor suppressor gene, and RIZ1 inactivation is commonly found in many types of human cancers. RIZ1 inactivation most frequently occurs through loss of mRNA expression, frame shift mutation, chromosomal deletion, or missense mutation. RIZ1 is also a tumor susceptibility gene in mice. The loss of RIZ1 mRNA in human cancers was shown to associate with DNA methylation of its promoter CpG island. Methylation of the RIZ1 promoter strongly correlated with lost or decreased RIZ1 mRNA expression in breast, liver, colon, and lung cancer cell lines as well as in liver cancer tissues.

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent histone methyltransferase that specifically methylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3. May function as a DNA-binding transcription factor. Binds to the macrophage-specific TPA-responsive element (MTE) of the HMOX1 (heme oxygenase 1) gene and may act as a transcriptional activator of this gene.

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + histone L-lysine = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + histone N(6)-methyl-L-lysine.

SUBUNIT STRUCTURE:Binds to the retinoblastoma protein (RB). Interacts with GATA3.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Ref.6 Ref.1

TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in retinoblastoma cell lines and in brain tumors. Also expressed in a number of other cell lines and in brain, heart, skeletal muscle, liver and spleen. Isoform 1 is expressed in testis at much higher level than isoform 3.

SEQUENCE SIMILARITY: Contains 8 C2H2-type zinc fingers.

Contains 1 SET domain.
