Mediator complex subunit 13 N-terminal. Mediator is a large complex of up to 33 proteins that is conserved from plants through fungi to humans - the number and representation of individual subunits varying with species. It is arranged into four different sections, a core, a head, a tail and a kinase-activity part, and the number of subunits within each of these is what varies with species. Overall, Mediator regulates the transcriptional activity of RNA polymerase II but it would appear that each of the four different sections has a slightly different function. Med13 is part of the ancillary kinase module, together with Med12, CDK8 and CycC, which in yeast is implicated in transcriptional repression, though most of this activity is likely attributable to the CDK8 kinase. The large Med12 and Med13 proteins are required for specific developmental processes in Drosophila, zebrafish, and Caenorhabditis elegans but their biochemical functions are not understood.

Tips:  If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position. The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs. Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below. Range on the Protein: Protein ID Protein Position Domain Position:  No Conserved Features/Sites Found for Med13_N
