Anti-HMG-Lysine (C15-1317-796)

General description

Acetylation of lysine residues in proteins has emerged as an important mechanism in regulation and coordination of normal and pathophysiological cell metabolism. Lysine HMGylation is a newer post-translational protein modification that occurs under normal basal conditions. In murine models of HMG-CoA lyase deficiency, higher levels of protein lysine HMGylation has been observed. This rabbit polyclonal antibody specifically detects chemically modified proteins containing hydroxymethylglutaryl-lysine modifications, but not unmodified proteins. (Ref.: Wagner, GR et al. (2017). Cell Metabolism 25(4); 823-837).

Specificity

This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects BSA-conjugated 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl (HMG)-Lysine. It recognizes BSA chemically modified to contain HMG-lysine modifications, but not unmodified BSA.

Immunogen

3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl (HMG)-Lysine conjugated to BSA.

Epitope: unknown

Application

Anti-HMG-Lysine, Cat. No. ABS2108, is a rabbit polyclonal antibody that detects hydroxymethylglutaryl-lysine conjugated proteins and has been tested for use in Western Blotting.
