Product Description
ALKBH8 Antibody (C-term) [APR05806G] | Leading Biology
Product Category: Polyclonal Antibodies
Host: Rabbit
Species Reactivity: H
Specificity: This ALKBH8 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 494-523 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human ALKBH8.
Cellular Localisation: Cytoplasm. Nucleus Note=Predominantly cytoplasmic.
Molecular Weight: 75208
Clone: Polyclonal
Gene Name: ALKBH8
Gene ID: 91801
Function: Catalyzes the methylation of 5-carboxymethyl uridine to 5- methylcarboxymethyl uridine at the wobble position of the anticodon loop in tRNA via its methyltransferase domain (PubMed:20123966, PubMed:20308323, PubMed:31079898) . Catalyzes the last step in the formation of 5-methylcarboxymethyl uridine at the wobble position of the anticodon loop in target tRNA (PubMed:20123966, PubMed:20308323) . Has a preference for tRNA (Arg) and tRNA (Glu), and does not bind tRNA (Lys) (PubMed:20308323) . Binds tRNA and catalyzes the iron and alpha-ketoglutarate dependent hydroxylation of 5-methylcarboxymethyl uridine at the wobble position of the anticodon loop in tRNA via its dioxygenase domain, giving rise to 5- (S) - methoxycarbonylhydroxymethyluridine; has a preference for tRNA (Gly) (PubMed:21285950) . Required for normal survival after DNA damage (PubMed:20308323) . May inhibit apoptosis and promote cell survival and angiogenesis (PubMed:19293182) .
Summary: Tissue Location: Widely expressed, with highest expression in spleen, followed by pancreas and lung.
Form: Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is prepared by Saturated Ammonium Sulfate (SAS) precipitation followed by dialysis against PBS.
Storage: Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
