Anti-PPP3R1 Antibody Picoband®

Calcineurin, the Ca (2+) /calmodulin-regulated protein phosphatase, first detected in skeletal muscle and brain, has been found in all cells from yeast to mammals. Calcineurin A alpha (PPP3CA), is located on human chromosomes 4, Chromosomal mapping of the human genes for the calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase (calcineurin) catalytic subunit. Calcineurin regulates bone formation by the osteoblast.

Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 4; Activator-recruited cofactor 36 kDa component; ARC36; Mediator complex subunit 4; TRAP/SMCC/PC2 subunit p36 subunit; Vitamin D3 receptor-interacting protein complex 36 kDa component; DRIP36; MED4; ARC36; DRIP36; VDRIP; HSPC126

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.
