High impact information on TCEB3B

  • Mechanistic studies have demonstrated that Elongin A3 possesses similar biochemical features to Elongin A2 [1].
  • Here, we report on the cloning, expression, and characterization of human Elongin A2, a novel transcription elongation factor that exhibited 47% identity and 61% similarity to Elongin A [2].
  • Northern blot analysis revealed that Elongin A2 mRNA was specifically expressed in the testis, suggesting that Elongin A2 may regulate the transcription of testis-specific genes [2].
  • Biochemical studies have shown that Elongin A2 stimulates the rate of transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II and is capable of forming a stable complex with Elongin BC [2].
 

Anatomical context of TCEB3B

  • Identification and characterization of Elongin A2, a new member of the Elongin family of transcription elongation factors, specifically expressed in the testis [2].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TCEB3B

  • Here, we report on the molecular cloning, expression, and biochemical characterization of human Elongin A3, a novel transcription elongation factor that exhibits 49 and 81% identity to Elongin A and the recently identified Elongin A2, respectively [1].
