Sample Data :Representative western blot of the di-methylated arginine protein profile with Anti-Methylated Arginine (NG, NG-Di-methyl) (1:1000) using human melanoma (MMRU) cell lysate (A) and the MMRU lysate plus additional di-methyl arginine peptide inhibitor (B).
Sample Data :Immunofluorecent stain of human melanoma (MMRU) cell with Anti-Methylated Arginine (NG,NG-Di-methyl).
Scientific Background :Post-translational modification of proteins and peptides is a robust way to regulate function of existing proteins or peptides. Methylation on arginine residues is one example of post-translational modification and is performed by a variety of protein methyl transferases in the cell. Arginine methylation of Rad9 for example is performed by protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) is important for regulation of Rad9 function and is a major element for maintaining genome integrity (1). The Methylated Arginine antibody detects methylation on arginine residues in proteins and peptide.
