Background

Elongator complex protein 3, also named KAT9, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ELP3 gene. It is mapped to 8p21.1. ELP3 is the catalytic histone acetyltransferase subunit of the RNA polymerase II elongator complex, which is a component of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) holoenzyme and is involved in transcriptional elongation. ELP3 supports the migration and branching of projection neurons through acetylation of alpha-tubulin in the developing cerebral cortex. In mammals, ELP3 is important for paternal DNA demethylation afterfertilization. ELP3 is potentially involved in cellular redox homeostasis by mediating the acetylation ofglucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. Besides, ELP3 may play a role in chromatin remodeling and is involved in acetylation of histones H3 and probably H4.

Cross Reactivity

No cross-reactivity with other proteins.

Immunogen

A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human KAT9/ELP3, identical to the related mouse sequence.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Expressed at low levels in the more differentiated suprabasal regions of the small intestine, and at higher levels in the colon, mainly in the upper region and in scattered cells throughout the remaining epithelium. Also expressed in epithelial cells of bladder, ileum and stomach and at lower levels in pancreas and earskin. The phosphorylated form is nearly exclusively expressed in goblet cells of the small intestine and in the lumen-proximal cells of the colon (at protein level). Also expressed in jejunum and duodenum.

Reconstitution

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Function

Catalytic histone acetyltransferase subunit of the RNA polymerase II elongator complex, which is a component of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) holoenzyme and is involved in transcriptional elongation. Elongator may play a role in chromatin remodeling and is involved in acetylation of histones H3 and probably H4. Involved in acetylation of alpha-tubulin (PubMed:19185337). May also have a methyltransferase activity. Involved in cell migration. Involved in neurogenesis. Regulates the migration and branching of projection neurons in the developing cerebral cortex, through a process depending on alpha-tubulin acetylation.

Components

Each vial contains 4mg Trehalose, 0.9mg NaCl, 0.2mg Na2HPO4, 0.05mg NaN3.
