fshPCD

Polycomb chromodomain from the Drosophila (fruit fly) Pc protein (a.a. 16-78).
Alias: KAH03


Usage and Biology

Drosophila PCD of Pc1 (orange) Crystal structure reported by Fischle et al. 2011. Grey = H3 histone tail; Ball and stick = trimethylated lysine 27
  • Protein Data Bank ID 1PDQ
  • Mammalian expression vector required
  • Protein domain; requires promoter, start codon, stop codon, and polyA signal for proper expression

See the human variant BBa_J176000 for more details on the biology of the Polycomb chromodomain.
