Recombinant Human DNMT3A, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: DNMT3A-513H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human DNMT3a, (a-a 2-913), with N-terminal GST tag expressed inbaculovirus. MW= 128 kDa.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Insect Cells
• Tag: GST
• Protein Length: 2-913 a.a.
• Description: CpG methylation is an epigenetic modification that is important for embryonic development, imprinting, and X-chromosome inactivation. Studies in mice have demonstrated that DNA methylation is required for mammalian development. This gene encodes a DNA methyltransferase that is thought to function in de novo methylation, rather than maintenance methylation. The protein localizes to the cytoplasm and nucleus and its expression is developmentally regulated. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
• Purity: >50%.
• Application: Useful for the study of enzyme kinetics, screening inhibitors, and selectivity profiling.
• Formulated In: 25 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 100 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween-20 and 10% glycerol.
• Stability: >6 months at –80°C.
