Anti-SUV39H1 antibody produced in rabbit

Rabbit polyclonal anti-SUV39H1 antibody reacts with human, mouse, rat, zebrafish, bovine, and canine suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1 enzymes.

Suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1 (SUV39H1, KMT1A, MG44) is a histone-lysine N-methyltransferase that methylates lys-9 of histone H3. SUV39H1 is involved in heterochromatin organization, chromosome segregation, and mitotic progression. SUV39H1 generates a gradient of methylation marks at the kinetochore to spatiotemporally direct accurate chromosome segregation in mitosis. Suv39H1 interacts with Snail to mediated E-cadherin, a hallmark of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), repression in breast cancer.

Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human SUV39H1

Rabbit Anti-SUV39H1 antibody can be used for western blot applications at a concentration of 1.25μg/ml.

Rabbit polyclonal anti-SUV39H1 antibody is used to tag suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1 for detection and quantitation by immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the presence and roles of suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1 in the regulation of chromatin organization and chromosome segregation and as a regulator or cancer progression via E-cadherin-dependent epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

SUV39H1, a human homolog of the Drosophila position effect variegation modifier Su(var)3-9 and of the S. pombe silencing factor clr4, encodes a heterochromatic protein that transiently accumulates at centromeric positions during mitosis.This gene is a member of the suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog family and encodes a protein with a chromodomain and a C-terminal SET domain. This nuclear protein moves to the centromeres during mitosis and functions as a histone methyltransferase, methylating Lys-9 of histone H3. Overall, it plays a vital role in heterochromatin organization, chromosome segregation, and mitotic progression.
