Overview

MED4 produced in E. Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 278 amino acids (1-270 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 30.7kDa. MED4 is fused to 8 amino acids His Tag at C-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Mediator complex subunit 4 (MED4) is a component of the Mediator complex, a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. MED4 is a component of the vitamin D receptor-interacting protein (DRIP) complex which functions as a nuclear receptor coactivator. The DRIP complex is able to activate nuclear receptors in a ligand-dependent manner. MED4 functions as a link to convey information from gene-specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription apparatus. MED4 is recruited to promoters by direct interactions with regulatory proteins and serves as a scaffold for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors.
