Background

Pygopus-2 is a 41 kDa nuclear protein that functions as a transcriptional co-activator in the Wnt signaling pathway. Human Pygopus-2 is synthesized as a 406 amino acid (aa) residue protein that has the conserved N-terminal homology domain (NHD) and the C-terminal PHD (Plant homeodomain) zinc finger. The PHD zinc finger binds Legless/Bcl9, which in turn binds beta -Catenin, which recruits TCF/LEF DNA binding proteins. Formulation of the quaternary complex is required for the activation of Wnt-responsive genes. Over the region used for immunization, human Pygopus-2 shares 95% amino acid sequence identity with the mouse protein.
