ALKBH2 ABH2
蛋白名称
Alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase alkB homolog 2 (EC 1.14.11.33) (Alkylated DNA repair protein alkB homolog 2) (DNA oxidative demethylase ALKBH2) (Oxy DC1)
免疫原
Synthesized peptide derived from human protein . at AA range: 140-220
特异性
ALKB2 Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of protein.
组成
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, and 0.02% sodium azide.
纯化工艺
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
背景
The Escherichia coli AlkB protein protects against the cytotoxicity of methylating agents by repair of the specific DNA lesions generated in single-stranded DNA. ALKBH2 and ALKBH3 (MIM 610603) are E. coli AlkB homologs that catalyze the removal of 1-methyladenine and 3-methylcytosine (Duncan et al., 2002 [PubMed 12486230]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],
功能
cofactor:Binds 1 Fe(2+) ion per subunit.,enzyme regulation:Activated by ascorbate.,function:Dioxygenase that repairs alkylated DNA and RNA containing 1-methyladenine and 3-methylcytosine by oxidative demethylation. Has strong preference for double-stranded DNA. Has low efficiency with single-stranded substrates. Requires molecular oxygen, alpha-ketoglutarate and iron.,similarity:Belongs to the alkB family.,subcellular location:Detected in replication foci during S-phase.,tissue specificity:Detected in colon, small intestine, ovary, testis, prostate, skeletal muscle, heart, liver and urinary bladder.,
