NCIt synonyms : HLA-DR Associated Protein II; I-2PP2A; SET; IGAAD; PHAPII; SET Protein; 2PP2A; TAF-I; Template Activating Factor I Beta; SET Translocation Inhibitor-2 of Protein Phosphatase-2A; Phosphatase 2A Inhibitor I2PP2A; I2PP2A; Inhibitor of Granzyme A-Activated DNase; Inhibitor of GZMA-Activated DNase; Template-Activating Factor I; TAF-IBeta; Phosphatase-2A Inhibitor-I2PP2A;
NCIt definition : Protein SET (290 aa, 33 kDa) is encoded by the human SET gene. This protein is involved
in the modulation of apoptosis, transcription, and nucleosome assembly.;
NCIt note : Protein SET is a specific inhibitor of PP2A that may be involved in intracellular
signaling after ligand activation of HLA class II molecules. Serine phosphorylated
SET has a long acidic C-terminus and SET domain. SET is a specific inhibitor of GZMA-activated
DNase/nucleoside diphosphate kinase (GAAD/NM23H1). GZMA cleavage of SET releases NM23H1
from inhibition, results in SET degradation, NM23H1 translocation to the nucleus,
and NM23H1 nicking of DNA.;
