WB (Western Blot)
(Western blot for recombinant PCAF activity 0.5 ug Histone H4 was incubated with 0 ug (-), 0.5 ug (+) PCAF in a 20 ul reaction system for 2 hours at room temperature. Half of each reaction was run on a 13% SDS-PAGE gel, and products were detected by Western blot. H4ac (pan-acetyl) antibody was used to recognize acetylated histone H4.)
Background: p300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF), also known as K (lysine) acetyltransferase 2B (KAT2B), is a transcriptional coactivator associated with p53 that contains acetyltransferase and E3 ubiquitin ligase domains as well as a bromodomain for interaction with other proteins. The bromodomain functions as a 'reader' of epigenetic histone marks and regulates chromatin structure and gene expression by linking associated proteins to the recognized acetylated nucleosomal targets. PCAF competes with E1A for binding to p300/CBP, which associate with various sequence-specific factors involved in cell growth and/or differentiation, including c-Jun and the adenoviral oncoprotein E1A. PCAF exerts histone acetyltransferase activity in association with core histones (H3 and H4) and with nucleosome core particles, and functions to promote transcriptional activation. PCAF has also been shown to inhibit cell cycle progression and to counteract the mitogenic activity of the adenoviral oncoprotein E1A. In case of HIV-1 infection, PCAF is recruited by the viral protein TAT to regulate TAT's transactivating activity and may help induce chromatin remodeling of proviral genes.

Product Notes
The KAT2B/PCAF kat2b (Catalog #AAA60152) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Baculovirus 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 "KAT2B/PCAF, 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
