SUPT16H is a transcription factor that interacts with RNF40. This transcription factor mediates structural changes in chromatin during DNA double strand repair. Rabbit Anti-SUPT16H antibody recognizes bovine, rat, human, zebrafish, mouse, and canine SUPT16H.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human SUPT16H
Application
Rabbit Anti-SUPT16H antibody can be used for western blot assays at a concentration of 1.25μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Transcription of protein-coding genes can be reconstituted on naked DNA with only the general transcription factors and RNA polymerase II. However, this minimal system cannot transcribe DNA packaged into chromatin, indicating that accessory factors may facilitate access to DNA. One such factor, FACT (facilitates chromatin transcription), interacts specifically with histones H2A/H2B to effect nucleosome disassembly and transcription elongation. FACT is composed of an 80 kDa subunit and a 140 kDa subunit, the latter of which is SUPT16H.

Many anticancer therapies function largely by inducing DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) or altering the ability of cancer cells to repair them. Proper and timely DNA repair requires dynamic changes in chromatin assembly and disassembly characterized by histone H3 lysine 56
