MEL-18: Lysates

MEL-18 is a transcriptional repressor that binds specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-GACTNGACT-3'. Mel18 has tumor suppressor activity and may play a role in cell proliferation and/or neural cell development. It regulates proliferation of early T progenitor cells by maintaining expression of HES1. Also plays a role in antero-posterior specification of the axial skeleton and negative regulation of the self-renewal activity of hematopoietic stem cells.
