Applications Validated by Active Motif: ChIP: 5 ul per ChIP ChIP-Seq & ChIP-chip: 5 ul each WB*: 1:500 – 1:1,000 dilution *Note: many chromatin-bound proteins are not soluble in a low salt nuclear extract and fractionate to the pellet. Therefore, we recommend a High Salt / Sonication Protocol when preparing nuclear extracts for Western blot. |

Background Information
Menin (MEN1, SCG2) is a tumor suppressor and a component of multiple MLL-containing protein complexes (MLL, ACSOM, MLL2/3 and MLL3/4), which methylate histone H3 at lysine 4. Menin interacts directly with MLL through a domain in the N-terminus of MLL. It also interacts with RNA polymerase II large subunit C-terminal domain phosphorylated at Ser5. Menin is involved in the activation of HOX gene expression and is localized along with MLL at several HOX gene promoters. It is also important for activating the expression of several cell cycle regulators, indicating a mechanism for its role as a tumor suppressor. Defects in Menin are associated with inherited Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia type I, a dominant predisposition to cancer of a number of endocrine tissues.
