It plays a role in chromatin remodeling by acetylating lysines on histone tails which facilitates transcriptional activation. KAT2B is expressed ubiquitously but higher expressions occur in tissues with active transcription such as the brain and testes. KAT2B\/PCAF can also interact with transcription regulators adding another layer to its role in gene expression regulation.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nKAT2B\/PCAF participates in modifying chromatin structure and impacting transcription. It forms part of various complexes most notably a complex with other proteins like p300 and CBP which have acetyltransferase activity too. Through modifying histones KAT2B\/PCAF influences gene expression patterns critical for cell cycle regulation and differentiation. It also acetylates non-histone proteins playing roles in diverse biological processes beyond transcription.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nKAT2B\/PCAF integrates into the regulation of cell cycle and apoptosis pathways. One of the major pathways it involves in is the p53 signaling pathway which is important for cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in response to DNA damage. KAT2B\/PCAF works with proteins like p53 and HDACs (histone deacetylases) to fine-tune the balance between acetylation and deacetylation of histones and other proteins influencing cell cycle progression and cellular response to stress signals.\u003cbr\u003e\nKAT2B\/PCAF has associations with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Its capability to regulate cell cycle and apoptosis connects it to cancer biology where altered expression or activity might contribute to unchecked cell proliferation. Variations in KAT2B\/PCAF activity also link to neurodegenerative disorders like Huntington’s disease. The protein interacts with other factors like p53 and SMAD transcription factors in contexts relevant to these diseases suggesting its roles in pathways critical for disease development or progression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843954823337,"sku":"ab268695","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab268695","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
