Recombinant Human Mediator Complex Subunit 20

Source : E.coli. MED7 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 256 amino acids (1-233) and having a molecular mass of 29.7 kDa.MED7 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. MED7 is a member of the Mediator complex subunit 7 family. The activation of gene transcription is a multistep course which is initiated by factors which identify transcriptional enhancer sites in DNA and collaborate with co-activators to direct transcriptional initiation by the RNA polymerase II apparatus. The gene encode a subunit of the CRSP (cofactor required for SP1 activation) complex, that, together with TFIID, is needed for effective activation by SP1. Additionally, MED7 is also an element of other multisubunit complexes e.g. thyroid hormone receptor- (TR-) associated proteins that cooperate with TR and enables TR function on DNA templates in conjunction with initiation factors and cofactors.
