Target Details for MED18

Target: MED18 (Mediator Complex Subunit 18 (MED18))

Alternative Name: MED18 (MED18 Products)

Background:

Synonyms: Mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 18, Mediator complex subunit 18, p28b, MED18,

Tissue Specificity: Expressed in immature but not mature T-cells. Also found in CD34+ cells from peripheral blood, CD34+ precursors from umbilical cord blood and adult bone marrow.

Background: MED18 is a component of the Mediator complex, which is a coactivator for DNA-binding factors that activate transcription via RNA polymerase II. Using in vitro-translated epitope-tagged proteins for protein-binding assays, it is found that MED18 ly interacted with the Mediator subunit TRFP (MED20). The MED18-TRFP heterodimer could also be coimmunoprecipitated from cotransfected insect cells. The MED18 gene was mapped to chromosome 1p35.3 based on an alignment of the MED18 sequence with the genomic sequence.

Molecular Weight: 24 kDa

Gene ID: 54797

Pathways: Regulation of Lipid Metabolism by PPARalpha
