MED24

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Template:Cs1 config Template:Short description An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 24 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MED24 gene.[1]

Function

This gene encodes a component of the mediator complex (also known as TRAP, SMCC, DRIP, or ARC), a transcriptional coactivator complex thought to be required for the expression of almost all genes. The mediator complex is recruited by transcriptional activators or nuclear receptors to induce gene expression, possibly by interacting with RNA polymerase II and promoting the formation of a transcriptional pre-initiation complex. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[1]

Interactions

MED24 has been shown to interact with Estrogen receptor alpha,[2] and Cyclin-dependent kinase 8,[2][3] Calcitriol receptor[3]
