ZooMAb antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.

Each ZooMAb antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Clone 1O8 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects human Methyltransferase-like protein 7A (METTL7A). It targets an epitope within 21 amino acids from the C-terminal region and detects both isoforms.

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to 21 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human Methyltransferase-like protein 7A (METTL7A).

Quality Control Testing

Evaluated by Western Blotting in HT-1376 cell lysate.

Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected Methyltransferase-like protein 7A (METTL7A) in HT-1376 cell lysate.

Tested Applications

Affinity Binding Assay: A representative lot of this antibody bound METTL7A peptide with a KD of 1.1 x 10-7 in an affinity binding assay.

Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected METTL7A in human testis tissue sections.

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected METTL7A in HepG2 cells.

Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user

Anti-METTL7A, clone 1O8 ZooMAb^®, Cat. No. ZRB1185, is a rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that targets METTL7A and is tested for use in Affinity Binding Assay, Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin), and Western Blotting.

Methyltransferase-like protein 7A (UniProt: Q9H8H3 and computationally mapped F8VQX6, Q9H8H3, also known as AAM-B, METTL7A) is encoded by the METTL7A gene (Gene ID: 25840) in human. METTL7A is a ubiquitously expressed lipid droplets-associated protein that displays high expression in liver and thyroid tissues. It is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-29) and is an integral membrane protein anchored into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. It contains N and C-terminal domains, juxtamembrane region, and a putative central catalytic domain for methyltransferase activity. The N-terminal regions contains a hydrophobic sequence of 28 amino acids that is shown to be essential for its insertion into ER. It also helps recruit other cellular protein to lipid droplets for the formation of functional organelles. METTL7A is reported to be essential for the assembly and release stages of hepatitis C (HCV) life cycle but is not essential for the replication step of virus. Knockdown of METTL7A is shown to impair HCV propagation. METTL7A gene is reported to be downregulated in thyroid cancer. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
