ANTI-P300/CBP ASSOCIATED FACTOR, RABBIT

Anti-PCAF antibody is also suitable for use microarray, immunoblot, chemiluminescent western blot (1:500 using whole extracts of dog MDCK kidney cells), and immunoprecipitation (5-10 μg using RIPA lysate with approx. 4x10,000,000 human acute T cell leukemia Jurkat cells).

PCAF (p300/CBP associated factor, P/CAF), a type A histone acetyltransferases (HAT), has been identified in several species. Human PCAF is a ubiquitous protein member of the GCN5-related N-acetyltransferase (GNAT) superfamily.

PACF (p300/CBP association factor) functions as a transcriptional coactivator in association with p300 and CBP (CREB-binding protein). PCAF share high degree of sequence similarity with human and mouse GCN5 HAT (Histone acetyltransferases). PACF mediates the acetylation of core histone. It is also known for the acetylation of non-histone proteins such as p53, MyoD, TFIIE-b, TFIIE, GATA-1, EKLF, HMGI (Y), and several other cellular and viral proteins. PCAF possesses chromatin modification activity and modulation of transcription factors for the activation of transcription. It also promotes cell growth and development as myogenesis and also contribute to receptor-mediated cell signaling or activation.
