For optimal storage, aliquot target into smaller quantities after centrifugation and store at recommended temperature.
For most favorable performance, avoid repeated handling and multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
Scientific Background: KAT7 or K (lysine) acetyltransferase 5 is a signaling protein that belongs to the MYST family of histone acetyl transferases (HATs) and was originally isolated as an HIV-1 TAT-interactive protein which play important roles in regulating chromatin remodeling, transcription and other nuclear processes by acetylating histone and nonhistone proteins. KAT7 acts as a transcriptional inhibitor and inhibited AR-mediated transactivation of reporter constructs in CV-1 and PC-3 cells (1). KAT7 is part of a multisubunit complex that can acetylate histones H3 and H4 (2).
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is part of the multimeric HBO1 complex, which possesses histone H4-specific acetyltransferase activity. This activity is required for functional replication origins and is involved in transcriptional activation of some genes. In both cases, the acetylation of histone H4 helps unfold chromatin so that the DNA can be accessed and replicated or transcribed. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]
Uniprot Description
MYST2: a histone acetyltransferase that participates in DNA replication and the loading of the minichromosome maintenance (Mcm) complex onto chromatin. Is required for origin recognition complex (Orc) formation and replication licensing, and is responsible for much of the acetylation of histone H4. Interacts with MCM2 and ORC1L. Phosphorylated by Cdc2 during mitosis, creating a site that recruits Plk1, which in turn phosphorylates MYST2. Its phosphorylation by Plk1 during mitosis may be required for the formation of the prereplicative complex. Interacts with the androgen receptor (AR) in the presence of dihydrotestosterone. Specifically represses AR-mediated transcription.

Product Notes
The KAT7 kat7 (Catalog #AAA515522) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells using baculovirus and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is Full Length. AAA Biotech's KAT7 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Acetyltransferase Assay. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the KAT7 kat7 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "KAT7, 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
