SRC-1 Antibody / NCOA1, 100 ug

The nuclear receptor coactivator 1 (NCOA1), also known as SRC-1, is a transcriptional coregulatory protein that contains several nuclear receptor interacting domains and an intrinsic histone acetyltransferase activity. Src is recruited to DNA promotion sites by ligand-activated nuclear receptors. It in turn acylates histones, which makes downsteam DNA more accessible to transcription. Hence, it assists nuclear receptors in the upregulation of DNA expression. It has been found that the protein can enhance the transcriptional activity of ligand-bound PGR but does not alter the basal activity of the target promoter. It also enhances estrogen receptor, glucocorticoid receptor, thyroid hormone receptor, and retinoid X receptor transcriptional activities through their cognate DNA response elements in the presence of hormone. Additionally, Src may play a role as a bridging molecule between nuclear hormone receptors and general transcription factors.
