Product Description
|
ICP0702
The affinity purified rabbit polyclonal anti-Di-methylated lysine antibodies are developed using a technique unique to ImmuneChem. The Di-methylated lysine antibodies are affinity purified using N-Di-methyl (epsilon amino group) lysine on agarose as the affinity matrix. The purified antibodies are conjugated to horse radish peroxidase (HRP). The antibody-HRP conjugates could be utilized for detection, quantization and localization of proteins with Di-methylated lysine residues.

Scientific Description
|
Protein lysine methylation (MeK) is a conserved post-translational modification and is an important biochemical process for many protein-protein interactions. It is found in many proteins, for example, calmodulin, cytochrome C, chromosomal proteins, histones, non-histones as well as neural storage body proteins. It has been suggested that di-methylation of lysine plays an important role in gene silencing.[1]
