Description

General description

Monoclonal Anti-PRMT5 (mouse IgG2a isotype) is derived from the PRMT5-21 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from mice immunized with GST-PRMT5 containing the C-terminal region of the human PRMT5. Protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMT) 5 belongs to the type II arginine methyltransferases. PRMT5 (also known as Skb1Hs/janus kinase-binding protein 1 (JBP1) exists as homo-oligomeric complexes, which includes a dimer and tetramer. PRMT5 is found mainly in the cytoplasm. This gene is located on human chromosome 14q11.2.

Immunogen

GST-PRMT5 containing the C-terminal region of the human PRMT5 (amino acids 315-637).

Application

Western Blotting (1 paper)

Monoclonal Anti-PRMT5 antibody produced in mouse has been used in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunoblotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) participates in the symmetrical dimethylation of arginine residues. Homooligomerization of PRMT5 has an important role in its ability to methylate the myelin basic protein (MBP) protein. PRMT5 also binds the Janus kinases and are involved in an interferon-signaling pathway. It also helps to produce symmetrical ω-NG-dimethylarginine.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
