Background: GCN5, also known as K (lysine) acetyltransferase 2A (KAT2A), is a component of the ATAC complex, which is a complex that specifically exerts histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activity on histones H3 and H4. KAT2A (GCN5) acts as a histone acetyltransferase to promote transcriptional activation. In the case of HIV-1 infection, it is recruited by the viral protein TAT and regulates TAT's transactivating activity. In addition, evidence suggests KAT2A (GCN5) may play a role in the induction of chromatin remodeling of proviral genes. KAT2A (GCN5) also functions as a repressor of NFkB by promoting ubiquitination of the NFkB subunit RelA in a HAT-independent manner. KAT2A (GCN5) contains a bromodomain that recognizes acetylated histone lysine residues and functions as a 'reader' of these epigenetic histone marks to regulate chromatin structure and gene expression by linking associated proteins to the recognized acetylated nucleosomal targets.

Product Notes
The KAT2A (Catalog #AAA388091) is a Recombinant 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 "KAT2A, Recombinant 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.Precautions
