THAP11 (Ronin) is a transcriptional repressor which is predominantly expressed in embryonic stem (ES) cells. It contains a THAP-type zinc finger domain which is characteristic of the THAP 11 family members. In ES cells, THAP11 interacts with the transcriptional co-regulator HCF-1, to recruit chromatin-modifying proteins such as members of the polycomb family of proteins, to induce gene repression. THAP11 targets genes involved in metabolism, transcriptional initiation, and messenger RNA splicing. It plays an important role in maintaining the pluripotent state of ES cells.

~45 kDa observed. Uniprot describes a molecular weight at 35 kDa However, this protein may be observed at ~45 kDa upon forming a complex with HCF-1. (Parker, J. B., et al. (2012). Mol Cell Biol 32(9):1654-1670.; Spanu, P. (1997). Gene. 193(1):89-96.).

Recombinant protein corresponding to human THAP11.
