Gene Information

human ... EZH2(2146)

General description

EZH2 gene is mapped to human chromosome 7q36.1.
Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase EZH2 is an enzyme encoded by the EZH2 gene in humans. It belongs to the multiprotein polycomb repressive complex 2.

Specificity

Anti-EZH2 (N-terminal) recognizes human and mouse EZH2.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1-14 of human EZH2.

Application

Anti-EZH2 (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)[1] and immunoblotting[2][3]
Anti-EZH2 (N-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a dilution of 1:500-1:1,000 using K562 cell lysates and NIH3T3 cell lysates.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (EZH2) is crucially involved in epigenetic silencing by acting as a histone methyltransferase. It is overexpressed in many cancers and is involved in malignant cell proliferation and invasion. EZH2 may be associated with senescence and apoptosis in gastric cancer. It may act as a valuable biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of gastric cancer. EZH2 may have function in regulation of gene transcription and chromatin structure.
Mutations in the EZH2 gene is implicated in the congenital disorder, Weaver syndrome.

Physical form

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

Storage and Stability

For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free” freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilutions should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
