This purified recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody recognizes SETMAR in human samples.

Recombinant antibody characteristics include:
• Validation in immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry analysis
• Superior lot-to-lot consistency
• Extremely high specificity and sensitivity
• Recombinant mouse monoclonal antibody
• Specific for SETMAR


SETMAR (SET domain and mariner transposase fusion gene) is a histone methyltransferase that methylates Lys-4 and Lys-36 of histone H3, creating specific tags for epigenetic transcriptional activation. It specifically mediates dimethylation of H3 Lys-36. SETMAR has sequence-specific DNA-binding activity, and recognizes the 19-mer core of the 5′-terminal inverted repeats (TIRs) of the Hsmar1 transposable element. SETMAT has DNA nicking activity, and in vivo end-joining activity, and may mediate genomic integration of foreign DNA.

Exceptional Consistency Saves You Time and Money
Recombinant antibodies are produced by transfection of mammalian cells with heavy and light chain antibody cDNAs. This provides you with the highest consistency between lots, eliminating the need to revalidate your assays for each lot.

High Specificity Means More Reliable Data
The recombinant technology employed in manufacture of the antibody assures greatest degree of reliability. Staining of nonspecific proteins is virtually eliminated while very high sensitivity is achieved. Invitrogen has validated this antibody in immunoprecipitation.

High Sensitivity Lets You Detect Low Levels of Target Protein
Recombinant antibodies demonstrate much higher sensitivity than ordinary antibodies. Proteins expressed in low levels can be detected with high specificity allowing you to use less of your precious samples than with ordinary antibodies.

Recombinant mouse IgG – Use Like Any Other IgG Antibody
As with traditional IgG antibodies, gel electrophoresis of recombinant antibodies produces a 150 kDa band under non-reducing conditions and 50 kDa and 25 kDa bands under reducing conditions.
