General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-23052) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human METTL6, targeting the amino acid region 1–250 of the protein. This antibody exhibits cross-reactivity with Human METTL6 from mouse and rat. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. Methyltransferase-like protein 6 (METTL6) belongs to the METL family. METTL6 is as a crucial regulator of tumor cell growth, and METTL6 is a bona fide transfer RNA (tRNA) methyltransferase, catalyzing the formation of 3-methylcytidine at C32 of specific serine tRNA isoacceptors (PMID:32923617). METTL6 is a member of the RNA methyltransferase family that has been identified in many cancers. The mRNA expression levels of METTL6 were significantly upregulated in HCC tumor tissues compared to that in adjacent non tumor tissues. CRISPR/Cas9 mediated knockout of METTL6 in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines remarkably inhibited colony formation, cell proliferation, cell migration, cell invasion and cell attachment ability (PMID:34913069).
DPABH-23052 is suitable for use in Western blot (WB) (1:2,000–1:10,000), IP (0.5-4.0 μg for 1.0-3.0 mg of total protein lysate), IHC (1:50–1:500) applications.
DPABH-23052 is supplied as a liquid formulation in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, pH 7.3. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
