Threonine aspartase 1 (420 aa, ~44 kDa) is encoded by the human TASP1 gene. This protein plays a role in the proteolysis of histone-lysine N-methyltransferase MLL protein. [ ]

  • Threonine Aspartase 1
DesignNote

Threonine aspartase 1 cleaves histone-lysine N-methyltransferase MLL which both increases the stability and enhances the nuclear localization for the MLL protein. (OMIM), Threonine aspartase 1 undergoes posttranslational autoproteolytic processing to generate alpha and beta subunits, which reassemble non-covalently into the active alpha2-beta2 heterotetramer.
