Background:

KAT2A / GCN5 is a transcriptional co-activator that has histone acetyltransferase activity. It exhibits significant histone acetyltransferase activity with core histones but not with nucleosome core particles. KAT2A is a component of the TFTC-HAT and STAGA complexes. KAT2A is also recruited by the viral protein Tat during HIV infection, inducing chromatin remodelling of proviral genes.

Specificity:

GCN5 (G720) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of GCN5 protein.

Alternative names:

Histone acetyltransferase KAT2A; General control of amino acid synthesis protein 5-like 2; Histone acetyltransferase GCN5; HsGCN5; Lysine acetyltransferase 2A; STAF97; KAT2A; GCN5; GCN5L2; HGCN5
