Anti-SAMD1 / SAM domain-containing protein 1 / Atherin

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity and histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and extracellular region. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Protein function: Unmethylated CpG islands (CGIs)-binding protein which localizes to H3K4me3-decorated CGIs, where it acts as a transcriptional repressor (PubMed:33980486). Tethers L3MBTL3 to chromatin and interacts with the KDM1A histone demethylase complex to modulate H3K4me2 and H3K4me3 levels at CGIs (PubMed:33980486). Plays a role in atherogenesis by binding with LDL on cell surface and promoting LDL oxidation which leads to the formation of foam cell (PubMed:16159594, PubMed:34006929). [The UniProt Consortium]
