Anti-AFF4 Picoband® Antibody (monoclonal, 8G12) Fluoro488 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
The AFF4 gene encodes a scaffold protein that functions as a core component of the super elongation complex (SEC), which is involved in transcriptional regulation during embryogenesis. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the AF4 family of transcription factors involved in leukemia. It is a component of the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) complex. This gene is mapped to chromosome 5q31.

Function
The heterodimer acts as an E1 ligase for SUMO1, SUMO2, SUMO3, and probably SUMO4. It mediates ATP-dependent activation of SUMO proteins followed by formation of a thioester bond between a SUMO protein and a conserved active site cysteine residue on UBA2/SAE2.
