Anti-BHC80/PHF21A Antibody Picoband® Fluoro647 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
PHD finger protein 21A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PHF21A gene. The PHF21A gene encodes BHC80, a component of a BRAF35 (MIM 605535) /histone deacetylase (HDAC; see MIM 601241) complex (BHC) that mediates repression of neuron-specific genes through the cis-regulatory element known as repressor element-1 (RE1) or neural restrictive silencer (NRS) .

Function
Component of the BHC complex, a corepressor complex that represses transcription of neuron-specific genes in non-neuronal cells. The BHC complex is recruited at RE1/NRSE sites by REST and acts by deacetylating and demethylating specific sites on histones, thereby acting as a chromatin modifier. In the BHC complex, it may act as a scaffold. Inhibits KDM1A-mediated demethylation of 'Lys-4' of histone H3 in vitro, suggesting a role in demethylation regulation.
