Function

General coactivator that functions cooperatively with TAFs and mediates functional interactions between upstream activators and the general transcriptional machinery. May be involved in stabilizing the multiprotein transcription complex. Binds single-stranded DNA. Also binds, in vitro, non-specifically to double-stranded DNA (ds DNA).

Activity summary

PC4 also known as Sub1 is a transcriptional coactivator protein. Its molecular weight is approximately 20 kDa. The protein is expressed in various tissues with particularly high expression in the liver and heart. PC4 facilitates transcription by interacting with basal transcription factors. It bonds with single-stranded DNA enhancing RNA polymerase II's ability to start transcription.

Biological function summary

Many experts note PC4's significant role in transcriptional regulation and chromatin structure dynamics. It operates as part of a multifunctional complex that regulates gene expression. PC4 stabilizes transcriptional pre-initiation complexes which helps initiate gene transcription. Its capacity to modulate chromatin can also impact DNA repair and replication processes emphasizing its diverse roles beyond transcriptional activation.

Pathways

Transcription regulation processes often feature PC4 prominently. It interacts within the transcriptional machinery alongside proteins such as TFIIB and TFIIH. Additionally PC4 participates in chromatin remodeling pathways which affect DNA accessibility and gene transcription. This protein's interaction with other transcription factors establishes it as a versatile component in gene expression pathways.

Associated diseases and disorders

Researchers link PC4 to cancer and cardiac hypertrophy. In cancer PC4 can influence oncogene activation and tumor suppressor pathways interacting with proteins like p53 in these contexts. Studies also suggest PC4 involvement in cardiac hypertrophy by affecting genes associated with heart muscle enlargement where it functions alongside other cardiac stress-responsive proteins. These associations highlight PC4's potential as a therapeutic target in various pathologies.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-PC4 antibody (ab72132)

    IHC image of ab72132 staining in human normal pancreas formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab72132, 5µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

    For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.
