Anti-TAF4 Antibody

Western blot analysis of TAF4 expression in A2780 (A), SKOV3 (B), mouse embryo (C) whole cell lysates.
Immunohistochemical analysis of TAF4 staining in human colon cancer formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

Protein Information
Name	TAF4
Synonyms	TAF2C, TAF2C1, TAF4A, TAFII130, TAFII135
Function	The TFIID basal transcription factor complex plays a major role in the initiation of RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-dependent transcription (PubMed:33795473). TFIID recognizes and binds promoters with or without a TATA box via its subunit TBP, a TATA-box-binding protein, and promotes assembly of the pre-initiation complex (PIC) (PubMed:33795473). The TFIID complex consists of TBP and TBP-associated factors (TAFs), including TAF1, TAF2, TAF3, TAF4, TAF5, TAF6, TAF7, TAF8, TAF9, TAF10, TAF11, TAF12 and TAF13 (PubMed:10594036, PubMed:33795473, PubMed:8942982). TAF4 may maintain an association between the TFIID and TFIIA complexes, while bound to the promoter, together with TBP, during PIC assembly (PubMed:33795473). Potentiates transcriptional activation by the AF-2S of the retinoic acid, vitamin D3 and thyroid hormone (PubMed:9192867).
