Anti-MED4 Antibody Picoband® (APC Conjugate)

Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 4, also known as mediator complex subunit 4 (MED4), a component of Mediator or vitamin D3 receptor-interacting protein complex 36 kDa component (DRIP36), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MED4 gene. The Mediator complex interacts with DNA-binding gene-specific transcription factors to modulate transcription by RNA polymerase II. The MED4 gene was mapped to chromosome 13 based on sequence similarity between the MED4 sequence and a genomic contig.

Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene-specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors.
