Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Rabbit Polyclonal Rabbit IgG
- Immunogen / epitope context: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human SMYD3, different from the related mouse sequence by one amino acid.
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 55 kDa; calculated MW: 49097 MW
- Reactivity: Human
- Applications: IHC, WB
As a polyclonal antibody, the reagent recognizes multiple epitopes on the target, which can improve detection robustness but may increase sensitivity to sample-dependent epitope changes.
Biological background
Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SMYD3; Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase SMYD3. SET and MYND domain-containing protein 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SMYD3 gene. The International Radiation Hybrid Mapping Consortium mapped the SMYD3 gene to chromosome 1. This gene encodes a histone methyltransferase which functions in RNA polymerase II complexes by an interaction with a specific RNA helicase. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Functional note: Histone methyltransferase. Specifically methylates 'Lys- 4' and 'Lys-5' of histone H3, inducing di- and tri-methylation, but not monomethylation. Plays an important role in transcriptional activation as a member of an RNA polymerase complex. Binds DNA containing 5'-CCCTCC-3' or 5'-GAGGGG-3' sequences. . Reported localization: Cytoplasm . Nucleus . Mainly cytoplasmic when cells are arrested at G0/G1. Accumulates in the nucleus at S phase and G2/M. Expression/tissue context: Expressed in skeletal muscles and testis. Overexpressed in a majority of colorectal and hepatocellular carcinomas. .
