Background

Brd4, a ubiquitously expressed nuclear phosphoprotein, is a member of BET protein family. It is a human homolog of mouse MCAP and consists of 2 N-terminal bromodomains, a central ET-domain, and several kinase-like motifs in its N-terminus. It is expressed as 2 isoforms; longer variant has a C-terminus region with a praline and glutamine-rich domains. Brd4 is a chromatin-binding protein whose expression is induced in response to growth stimuli. Brd4 acts at different stages of cell cycle by interacting with proteins including RFC and SPA-1 and regulates cell growth. It also has a role in regulating chromosomal dynamics during mitosis. Brd4 functions as a cellular target for E2 protein of papillomavirus.

FAQs for BRD4 Antibody (NB100-56487). (Showing 1 - 1 of 1 FAQ).

1. I would like to know if the antibody NB100-56487 (Brd4) can recognize both the long and short form of Brd4? Based on the datasheet, it seems like this antibody can recognize both forms but I am looking for papers or images that show the ability of the antibody to detect both forms.
   • Based on the sequence used to generate this antibody (NB100-56487), it should detect both the long and short form of the protein. The immunogen falls between amino acids 150-200. Looking at the images available on our website, it looks as though the antibody has a higher affinity for the short protein compared to the long protein. We unfortunately do not have any published references at this time; that utilize our product.
