p65 Antibody NF-kB

The p65 (RELA) heterodimer is the most abundant form of NF-KB. This gene is located on 11q13, which consists of 10 exons and spans about 8.1 kb of DNA. In rat sciatic nerves, the expression of the activated p65 subunit of NFKB was high in the nuclei of premyelinating Schwann cells and then progressively declined until it was nearly absent in adults. The transcriptional activity of NF-kappa-B is stimulated upon phosphorylation of its p65 subunit on serine-276 by protein kinase A(PKA). The transcriptional coactivator CBP/p300 associates with NF-kappa-B through 2 sites, an N-terminal domain that interacts with the C-terminal region of the unphosphorylated protein, and a second domain that only interacts with p65 phosphorylated on serine-276.
