Methylated Lysine Polyclonal Antibody

Cayman Chemical Item Number 13727

Description

Antigen: methylated KLH · Host: rabbit · Application(s): WB, IP, IHC, and ELISA · Post-translational modifications of proteins play critical roles in the regulation and function of many known biological processes. Proteins can be post-translationally modified in many different ways, and a common post-transcriptional modification of lysine involves methylation.¹ Lysine can be methylated once, twice, or three times by lysine methyltransferases. The transfer of methyl groups from S-adenosyl methionine to histones is catalyzed by enzymes known as histone methyltransferases. Histones which are methylated on certain residues can act epigenetically to repress or activate gene expression.^1,2
