ING3 Polyclonal Antibody

disease:Defects in ING3 may be a cause of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) [MIM:275355].,function:Component of the NuA4 histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex which is involved in transcriptional activation of select genes principally by acetylation of nucleosomal histones H4 and H2A. This modification may both alter nucleosome - DNA interactions and promote interaction of the modified histones with other proteins which positively regulate transcription. This complex may be required for the activation of transcriptional programs associated with oncogene and proto-oncogene mediated growth induction, tumor suppressor mediated growth arrest and replicative senescence, apoptosis, and DNA repair. NuA4 may also play a direct role in DNA repair when directly recruited to sites of DNA damage.,sequence caution:Intron retention.,similarity:Belongs to the ING family.,similarity:Contains 1 PHD-type zinc finger.,subunit:Component of the NuA4 histone acetyltransferase complex which contains the catalytic subunit HTATIP/TIP60 and the subunits EP400, TRRAP/PAF400, BRD8/SMAP, EPC1, DMAP1/DNMAP1, RUVBL1/TIP49, RUVBL2, ING3, actin, ACTL6A/BAF53A, MORF4L1/MRG15, MORF4L2/MRGX, MRGBP, YEATS4/GAS41, VPS72/YL1 and EAF6. The NuA4 complex interacts with MYC and the adenovirus E1A protein. HTATTIP/TIP60, EPC1, and ING3 together constitute a minimal HAT complex termed Piccolo NuA4.,tissue specificity:Expressed in brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, ovaries, placenta, prostate, skeletal muscle, small intestine, spleen, testis and thymus.,
