Other Names | Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 27, Cofactor required for Sp1 transcriptional activation subunit 8, CRSP complex subunit 8, Mediator complex subunit 27, P37 TRAP/SMCC/PC2 subunit, Transcriptional coactivator CRSP34, MED27, CRSP34 {ECO:0000312|EMBL:AAD127211}, CRSP8 |
Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP7432c was selected from the Center region of human CRSP8. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | MED27 |

Synonyms | CRSP34 {ECO:0000312|EMBL:AAD12721.1}, CR |
Function | Component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene- specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. Mediator is recruited to promoters by direct interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors. |

Background
The activation of gene transcription is a multistep process that is triggered by factors that recognize transcriptional enhancer sites in DNA. These factors work with co-activators to direct transcriptional initiation by the RNA polymerase II apparatus. CRSP8 is a subunit of the CRSP (cofactor required for SP1 activation) complex, which, along with TFIID, is required for efficient activation by SP1. This protein is also a component of other multisubunit complexes e.g. thyroid hormone receptor-(TR-) associated proteins which interact with TR and facilitate TR function on DNA templates in conjunction with initiation factors and cofactors.
