Product Specs

Introduction
ELL Associated Factor 1 (EAF1), a member of the EAF family, is primarily found in the heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, spleen, prostate, testis, small intestine, and colon. It functions as a transcriptional transactivator, enhancing the elongation activities of ELL and ELL2.
Description

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Information
  • Gene Name: EAF1 (ELL Associated Factor 1)
  • Protein Name: EAF1 (Human Recombinant)
  • Gene ID: 85403
  • UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot ID: Q96JC9
Function

EAF1 is known to act as a transcriptional transactivator of ELL (Eleven-Nineteen Lysine-Rich Leukemia) and ELL2 elongation activities . It is involved in the regulation of transcription elongation from RNA polymerase II promoter . This protein is part of the transcription elongation factor complex and is located in the intercellular bridge and nuclear body .

Mechanism of Action

EAF1 enhances the self-association of ELL, which reduces its interaction with other components of the Super Elongation Complex (SEC). This interaction is crucial for the regulation of transcription during genotoxic stress . EAF1 also plays a role in the inhibition of HIV-1 transcription through the inhibition of super elongation complex formation .

Clinical Significance

Mutations or dysregulation of the EAF1 gene have been associated with various diseases, including microphthalmia, syndromic 10 . The protein’s role in transcription elongation makes it a significant factor in understanding the mechanisms of gene expression and its implications in diseases.

Research and Applications

The recombinant form of EAF1 is used in various research applications to study its function and role in transcription regulation. It is also used to understand its interactions with other proteins and its impact on gene expression.

Pathways

EAF1 is involved in several pathways, including:

  • Formation of HIV elongation complex in the absence of HIV Tat
  • Gene expression (Transcription)
