Function

edit

This gene encodes a component of the mediator complex (also known as TRAP, SMCC, DRIP, or ARC), a transcriptional coactivator complex thought to be required for the expression of almost all genes. The mediator complex is recruited by transcriptional activators or nuclear receptors to induce gene expression, possibly by interacting with RNA polymerase II and promoting the formation of a transcriptional pre-initiation complex. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[5]

Interactions

edit

MED24 has been shown to interact with Estrogen receptor alpha,[6][7] and Cyclin-dependent kinase 8,[7][8] Calcitriol receptor[6][8]
