- *Abstract
-
Thanatos-associatedprotein (THAP) contains an atypical zinc finger motif with sequence-specificDNA-binding activity. Emerging data suggest that THAP proteins may function inchromatin-dependent processes, including transcriptional regulation. The rolesof most THAP proteins in normal and aberrant cellular processes remain largelyunknown. THAP11 has been identified as a transcriptional regulatordifferentially expressed in human colon cancer. Northwestern researchers havemade and successfully used a plasmid encoding a GST-THAP11 (aa132-313) fusionprotein. The recombinant protein can be affinity purified and is useful forvarious research purposes.
