Gene Full Name :

mediator complex subunit 18

Synonyms :

Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 18; Mediator complex subunit 18; p28b; MED18;

Protein 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.

Subcellular Localization :

Nucleus.

Recommended Detection Systems :

Boster recommends Enhanced Chemiluminescent Kit with anti-Rabbit IgG (EK1002) for Western blot, and HRP Conjugated anti-Rabbit IgG Super Vision Assay Kit (SV0002-1) for IHC(P) and ICC.

Background :

MED18 is a component of the Mediator complex, which is a coactivator for DNA-binding factors that activate transcription via RNA polymerase II. Using in vitro-translated epitope-tagged proteins for protein-binding assays, it is found that MED18 directly interacted with the Mediator subunit TRFP (MED20). The MED18-TRFP heterodimer could also be coimmunoprecipitated from cotransfected insect cells. The MED18 gene was mapped to chromosome 1p35.3 based on an alignment of the MED18 sequence with the genomic sequence.
