Description
Product Characteristics:
Activates transcription of CYP11A1. Interaction with CREBBP and EP300 results in a synergistic transcriptional activation of CYP11A1.Tissue specificity:Highest expression was seen in thymus, testis and adrenal cortex, expressed also in the adrenal medulla, thyroid, and stomach. Highly expressed in steroidogenic JEG-3 and MCF-7 cells, low expression was seen in non-steroidogenic HepG2 and HK293 cells.
Subcellular location: Nucleus
