Designing an IHC experiment for NCOA3? The guide has the expected staining pattern, antigen retrieval and fixation, antibodies backed by real IHC images, the tissue controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the NCOA3 IHC GuideFacts about Nuclear receptor coactivator 3.
Involved in the coactivation of different nuclear receptors, such as for steroids (GR and ER), retinoids (RARs and RXRs), thyroid gland (TRs), vitamin D3 (VDR) and prostanoids (PPARs). Displays histone acetyltransferase activity.

Widely expressed. High expression in heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas and placenta. Low expression in brain, and very low in lung, liver and kidney.
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Mainly cytoplasmic and weakly nuclear. Upon TNF activation and subsequent phosphorylation, it translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus.
