Anti-PRMT7 (Protein Arginine N-methyltransferase 7, FLJ10640, KIAA1933)

Protein arginine methylation is an important posttranslational modification in eukaryotic cells, which has been implicated in RNA processing and trafficking, receptor-mediated signaling, and transcription. The PRMT proteins are recruited by C-terminal activation domain-2 of the SRC (steroid receptor coactivator) GRIP-1, whereas p300 interacts with activation domain-1 in the C terminus. have identified a mammalian arginine N-methyltransferase, PRMT7, that can catalyze the formation of omega-NG-monomethylarginine in peptides. In contrast to the other members of the PRMT family, PRMT7 was not able to methylate GST-fibrillarin or myelin basic protein or histone H2A, in vitro. It is also structurally different from other PRMTS in containing two putative AdoMet-binding motifs. Both of these domains are required for enzymatic activity. Positive Control: HeLa or NIH 3T3 cell lysate. , Applications: , Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
