The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab56919, 1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2b [PLPV219] (ab91366, 2μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in HeLa cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde/permeabilized in 0.1% PBS-Tween used under the same conditions.

WDR5 also known as WD repeat domain 5 is an important component in the regulation of gene expression. It has a molecular mass of approximately 36 kDa. This protein is widely expressed across various tissues with significant expression in the nucleus. WDR5 primarily functions as a scaffolding protein facilitating the assembly of multiprotein complexes that modify chromatin structure and function. Its involvement in chromatin regulation highlights its mechanical role in modulating access to DNA for transcriptional machinery.
Biological function summary

WDR5 plays a significant role in epigenetic regulation by being part of the histone methyltransferase complex associated with MLL (Mixed Lineage Leukemia). This complex is responsible for the methylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4) an essential modification for transcriptional activation. WDR5's interaction with MLL complex components influences gene expression importantly during development and cellular differentiation. Its presence in the MLL complex connects it to pathways that govern cell cycle regulation and stem cell maintenance.

Pathways

WDR5 functions within key pathways such as the chromatin modification pathway and the WNT signaling pathway. In these settings WDR5 interacts with proteins like MLL and BRG1 which contribute to its role in gene regulation and chromatin remodeling. Through these interactions WDR5 modulates the transcription of target genes impacting cellular processes like proliferation and differentiation.

WDR5 has shown involvement in certain cancers and neurodevelopmental disorders. Its dysregulation is linked to leukemia specifically in cases where MLL rearrangements alter its normal function. Additionally aberrant expression of WDR5 may influence neurodevelopmental disorders though its precise role requires more research. In the context of leukemia WDR5's interaction with proteins such as DOT1L and MEN1 supports the proliferation of leukemic cells. Understanding the involvement of WDR5 in these conditions can offer insights into therapeutic targets for disease intervention.

Contributes to histone modification (PubMed : 16600877, PubMed : 16829960, PubMed : 19103755, PubMed : 19131338, PubMed : 19556245, PubMed : 20018852). May position the N-terminus of histone H3 for efficient trimethylation at 'Lys-4' (PubMed : 16829960). As part of the MLL1/MLL complex it is involved in methylation and dimethylation at 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (PubMed : 19556245). H3 'Lys-4' methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation (PubMed : 18840606). As part of the NSL complex it may be involved in acetylation of nucleosomal histone H4 on several lysine residues (PubMed : 19103755, PubMed : 20018852). May regulate osteoblasts differentiation (By similarity). In association with RBBP5 and ASH2L, stimulates the histone methyltransferase activities of KMT2A, KMT2B, KMT2C, KMT2D, SETD1A and SETD1B (PubMed : 21220120, PubMed : 22266653).
