ING2_HUMANSize: 280 amino acidsMass: 32808 Da

  • Subunit: Interacts with H3K4me3 and to a lesser extent with H3K4me2. Component of a mSin3A-like complex at least consisting of SIN3A, HDAC1, HDAC2, RBBP4/RbAp48, RBBP7/RbAp46, SAP30 and ING2
  • Tissue specificity: Widely expressed. Higher expressed in colon-cancer tumor than in normal colon tissues [IMAGE] Pathway & Disease-focused RT2 Profiler PCR Array including ING2: Epigenetic Chromatin Remodeling Factors in human mouse rat Primer Products: [IMAGE] OriGene qPCR
  • Function:
    UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary: ING2_HUMAN, Q9H160 Function: Seems to be involved in p53/TP53 activation and p53/TP53-dependent apoptotic pathways, probably by enhancing acetylation of p53/TP53. Component of a mSin3A-like corepressor complex, which is probably involved in deacetylation of nucleosomal histones. ING2 activity seems to be modulated by binding to phosphoinositides (PtdInsPs)
  • Similarity:
    Belongs to the ING family
