Elongin A1 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes the protein elongin A, which is a subunit of the transcription factor B (SIII) complex. The SIII complex is composed of elongins A/A2, B and C. It activates elongation by RNA polymerase II by suppressing transient pausing of the polymerase at many sites within transcription units. Elongin A functions as the transcriptionally active component of the SIII complex, whereas elongins B and C are regulatory subunits. Elongin A2 is specifically expressed in the testis, and capable of forming a stable complex with elongins B and C. The von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor protein binds to elongins B and C, and thereby inhibits transcription elongation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008], domain:The elongin BC complex binding domain is also known as BC-box with the consensus [APST]-L-x (3) -C-x (3) -[AILV]., function:SIII, also known as elongin, is a general transcription elongation factor that increases the RNA polymerase II transcription elongation past template-encoded arresting sites. Subunit A is transcriptionally active and its transcription activity is strongly enhanced by binding to the dimeric complex of the SIII regulatory subunits B and C (elongin BC complex) ., similarity:Contains 1 F-box domain., similarity:Contains 1 TFIIS N-terminal domain., subunit:Heterotrimer of an A (A1, A2 or A3), B and C subunit. The C subunit mediates the binding of the elongin BC complex to subunit A.
