Welcome! If you are familiar with the subject of this article, you can contribute to this open access knowledge base by deleting incorrect information, restructuring or completely rewriting any text.

Ideally this entry shall become one comprehensive and continuous article. Bulleted lists, for instance, were only used because it is impossible to automatically integrate independent facts into a continuous text.

Much of the current information on this page has been automatically compiled from Pubmed.

This precompiled information serves as a substrate and matrix to embed your contributions, but it is by no means the final word - Homo sapiens can do much better!

High impact information on MED24

Here, we show that upon heat shock the Pol II-free form of Mediator is rapidly recruited to HSF binding sites [1].
Mutation of the gene encoding the Mediator component thyroid hormone receptor-associated protein (TRAP)230/MED12 affects the development of multiple systems in zebrafish embryogenesis [2].
Recruitment of the Mediator complex by transcriptional activators is usually the key step in transcriptional activation [3].
MED16 and MED23 of Mediator are coactivators of lipopolysaccharide- and heat-shock-induced transcriptional activators [3].
Here we identify one of these proteins, encoded by the previously uncharacterized AK000411 open reading frame, as a new subunit of the mammalian Mediator complex [4].
