| Description: |
The Mediator complex is a coactivator involved in the regulated transcription of nearly all RNA polymerase II-dependent genes. Mediator functions as a bridge to convey information from gene-specific regulatory proteins to the basal RNA polymerase II transcription machinery. The Mediator complex, having a compact conformation in its free form, is recruited to promoters by direct interactions with regulatory proteins and serves for the assembly of a functional preinitiation complex with RNA polymerase II and the general transcription factors. On recruitment the Mediator complex unfolds to an extended conformation and partially surrounds RNA polymerase II, specifically interacting with the unphosphorylated form of the C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II. The Mediator complex dissociates from the RNA polymerase II holoenzyme and stays at the promoter when transcriptional elongation begins. The Mediator complex is composed of at least 31 subunits: MED1, MED4, MED6, MED7, MED8, MED9, MED10, MED11, MED12, MED13, MED13L, MED14, MED15, MED16, MED17, MED18, MED19, MED20, MED21, MED22, MED23, MED24, MED25, MED26, MED27, MED29, MED30, MED31, CCNC, CDK8 and CDC2L6/CDK11. The subunits form at least three structurally distinct submodules. The head and the middle modules interact directly with RNA polymerase II, whereas the elongated tail module interacts with gene-specific regulatory proteins. Mediator containing the CDK8 module is less active than Mediator lacking this module in supporting transcriptional activation.The head module contains: MED6, MED8, MED11, SRB4/MED17, SRB5/MED18, ROX3/MED19, SRB2/MED20 and SRB6/MED22. The middle module contains: MED1, MED4, NUT1/MED5, MED7, CSE2/MED9, NUT2/MED10, SRB7/MED21 and SOH1/MED31. CSE2/MED9 interacts directly with MED4. The tail module contains: MED2, PGD1/MED3, RGR1/MED14, GAL11/MED15 and SIN4/MED16. The CDK8 module contains: MED12, MED13, CCNC and CDK8. Individual preparations of the Mediator complex lacking one or more distinct subunits have been variously termed ARC, CRSP, DRIP, PC2, SMCC and TRAP.Med12 is a component of the evolutionarily conserved Mediator complex []. The Med12 subunit may specifically regulate transcription of targets of the Wnt signaling pathway and SHH signaling pathway. Med12 is a negative regulator of the Gli3-dependent sonic hedgehog signaling pathway via its interaction with Gli3 within the Mediator. A complex is formed between Med12, Med13, CDK8 and CycC which is responsible for suppression of transcription []. |

| Protein Domain |
| Type: |
Domain |
| Description: |
This domain is found in eukaryotes, and is typically between 325 and 354 amino acids in length. It is found in the C-terminal region of the mediator of RNA polymerase II transcription subunit 12. Both development and carcinogenesis are driven by signal transduction within the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin pathway through both programmed and unprogrammed changes in gene transcription. Beta-catenin physically and functionally targets this PQL (proline-, glutamine-, leucine-rich) region of the Med12 subunit of Mediator to activate transcription. The beta-catenin transactivation domain binds directly to isolated Med12 and intact Mediator both in vitro and in vivo, and Mediator is recruited to Wnt-responsive genes in a beta-catenin-dependent manner. |

| Description: |
This domain is found in eukaryotes, and is typically between 325 and 354 amino acids in length. The function of this particular region of the Mediator subunit Med12 is not known, but there is a conserved sequence motif: LCEWAV, from which the name derives. |

| Protein Domain |
| Type: |
Domain |
| Description: |
This entry represents the N-terminal domain of Med13.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 []. |
