Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects protein arginine N-methyltransferase 6 (gene PRMT6) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 41.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 40 kDa.
PRMT6 is a nuclear type I arginine methyltransferase that mainly produces asymmetric dimethylarginine. Its signature histone mark, H3R2me2a, opposes H3K4 methylation and is associated with transcriptional repression, and PRMT6 also methylates DNA polymerase β and HMGA1, linking it to gene regulation, DNA repair and senescence.

Immunogen
Recombinant human PRMT6 fragment (Gln45–Asp348), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places protein arginine N-methyltransferase 6 in the nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Highly expressed in kidney and testis. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
