Description
Product Characteristics: This gene encodes a subnuclear organelle and major component of the PML (promyelocytic leukemia)-SP100 nuclear bodies. PML and SP100 are covalently modified by the SUMO-1 modifier, which is considered crucial to nuclear body interactions. The encoded protein binds heterochromatin proteins and is thought to play a role in tumorigenesis, immunity, and gene regulation. Alternatively spliced variants have been identified for this gene, one of which encodes a high-mobility group protein.,SP100,lysp100b,Epigenetics & Nuclear Signaling,Immunology & Inflammation,SP100
