Description: Histone acetyltransferase KAT2A, also called GCN5 and GCN5L2, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the KAT2A gene. It is a histone acetyltransferase (HAT) that functions primarily as a transcriptional activator. The GCN5 protein, a regulator of transcription activation in yeast, promotes maximal levels of transcription by 2 transcriptional activators, GCN4 and the HAP2-HAP3-HAP4 complex. The GCN4 protein activates transcription of a large number of amino acid biosynthetic genes under limiting amino acid conditions and the HAP2-HAP3-HAP4 complex is thought to mediate transcription of genes involved in respiratory functions. GCN5 also functions as a repressor of NF-kappa-B by promoting ubiquitination of the NF-kappa-B subunit RELA in a HAT-independent manner.
Immunogen: Amino acids DPARPGLSQQQRASQRKAQVRGLPRAKKLEKL of human KAT2A/GCN5 were used as the immunogen for the GCN5 antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the GCN5 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
