NCBI Description

KAT2A, or GCN5, is a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that functions primarily as a transcriptional activator. It also functions as a repressor of NF-kappa-B (see MIM 164011) by promoting ubiquitination of the NF-kappa-B subunit RELA (MIM 164014) in a HAT-independent manner (Mao et al., 2009 [PubMed 19339690]).[supplied by OMIM, Sep 2009]

Uniprot Description

GCN5: an ubiquitous histone acetyltransferase that promotes transcriptional activation. Acetylation of histones gives a specific tag for epigenetic transcription activation. Has significant histone acetyltransferase activity with core histones, but not with nucleosome core particles. Interacts with P300, CBP, ADA2, and is a component of the TFTC-HAT complex. Two splice variant isoforms have been described.

Protein type: EC 2.3.1.48; Acetyltransferase

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 17q21

Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; extracellular space

Molecular Function: protein binding; histone acetyltransferase activity; histone deacetylase binding; transcription coactivator activity; chromatin binding; H3 histone acetyltransferase activity

Biological Process: transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; somitogenesis; establishment and/or maintenance of chromatin architecture; viral reproduction; in utero embryonic development; multicellular organism growth; regulation of protein stability; metencephalon development; histone deubiquitination; regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; chromatin remodeling; cell proliferation; telencephalon development; midbrain development; neural tube closure

Product Notes

The GCN5 kat2a (Catalog #AAA566605) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "GCN5, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
