Recombinant Human EHMT2 Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: EHMT2-24H
• Product Overview: Recombinant G9a Methyltransferase (aa 913-1193) protein with a N-terminal His tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: This gene encodes a methyltransferase that methylates lysine residues of histone H3. Methylation of H3 at lysine 9 by this protein results in recruitment of additional epigenetic regulators and repression of transcription. This gene was initially thought to be two different genes, NG36 and G9a, adjacent to each other in the HLA locus. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
• Source: E. coli
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
• Molecular Mass: 34.6 kDa
• Protein length: 913-1193
• Storage: -70 centigrade. Thaw quickly and store on ice before use. The remaining, unused, undiluted protein should be snap frozen, for example in a dry/ice ethanol bath or liquid nitrogen. Minimize freeze/thaws if possible, but very low volume aliquots (<5 μL) or storage of diluted protein is not recommended.
• Storage Buffer: Solution of purified recombinant protein in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM TCEP, 10% (w/v) glycerol
