Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 17 (gene MED17) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 72.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 73 kDa.
MED17 is a core subunit of the head module of the Mediator complex, which contacts RNA polymerase II and helps assemble the preinitiation complex at promoters. It is essential for Mediator function in transcription of most protein-coding genes. Mutations in MED17 are linked to a severe neurodevelopmental disorder, and it is studied in transcription mechanisms.
