Description
Recombinant full-length human p33ING2 was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag.
Scientific Background: p33ING2 is a member of the inhibitor of growth (ING) family that is associate with and modulates the activity of histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC) complexes and function in DNA repair and apoptosis. P33ING2 is a DNA damage-inducible gene that negatively regulates cell proliferation through activation of p53 by enhancing its acetylation (1). P33ING2 is required for initial DNA damage sensing and chromatin remodeling in the nucleotide excision repair process (2)
