PCF11 Recombinant antibody, PBS Only

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the cleavage/polyadenylation factor Pcf11 is a crucial regulatory factor required for recruiting polyadenylation machinery to elongating RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), and is necessary for correct transcriptional termination. Pcf11 (PCF11, cleavage and polyadenylation factor subunit, homolog (S. cerevisiae)), is a 1,555 amino acid nuclear protein that is a component of pre-mRNA cleavage complex II. It is suggested that Pcf11 is capable of promoting the dissociation of Pol II elongation complexes from DNA. Pcf11 contains a CTD-interaction domain that binds in a phospho-dependent manner to the heptad repeats within the RNA polymerase II CTD. The gene encoding Pcf11 is located on human chromosoem 11, which houses over 1,400 genes and comprises nearly 4% of the human genome. Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, Jacobsen syndrome, Niemann-Pick disease, hereditary angioedema and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome are associated with defects in genes that maps to chromosome 11.
