Bromodomain Containing 2

Bromodomain Containing 2, also known as BRD2 is a transcriptional regulator which is a member of the BET, bromodomains and extra terminal domain, family of roteins. BRD2 links with transcription complexes and it acetylated chromatin in the course of mitosis, and it selectively binds o the acetylated lysine-12 residue of histone H4 through its two romodomains. BRD2 maps to the major histocompatability complex  MHC class II region on chromosome 6p21.3, however sequence comparison  advocate that the protein is not implicated in the immune response. BRD2 has been implicated in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, a common form of epilepsy which grows to be visible in adolescence.

BRD2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 478 amino acids (1-455 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 52.8kDa.

BRD2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
