Nuclear receptor binding SET domain protein 1 (NSD1) is a gene that encodes a protein that functions in the enhancement of androgen receptor transactivation. The protein may also be a nucleus-localized, basic transcriptional factor and bi-functional transcriptional regulator. Fusions, missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, frameshift deletions and insertions, and in-frame deletions are observed in cancers such as endometrial cancer, intestinal cancer, and stomach cancer.

NSD1 is altered in 3.13% of all cancers with lung adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma, breast invasive ductal carcinoma, and cutaneous melanoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].

The most common alterations in NSD1 are NSD1 Mutation (2.66%), NSD1 Amplification (0.20%), NSD1 Loss (0.05%), NSD1 R1031* (0.02%), and NSD1 P493L (0.07%) [3].
