Asymmetric dimethylation of arginine (ADMA) is a post-translational modification catalyzed by type I arginine methyltransferase enzymes and found on many proteins,including RNA binding proteins and histones. Asym26 recognizes ADMA present at GAR (glycine-arginine rich sequences).
Western blot using Asymmetric Dimethyl-arginine Antibody (ADMA) Asym26 antibody (1:500 dilution) on mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) whole cell extract derived from cells with (+/+) or without (-/-) the PRMT1 gene. Asym26 detects multiple proteins in the “PRMT1 +/+” cell extract lane, indicating proteins containing ADMA. PRMT1 is responsible for the majority of ADMA in mammals, and thus the majority of Asym26-detectable bands disappear in the PRMT1 null cells. The relative migration positions and molecular weights of protein size standards are indicated, as well as a Western blot recognizing the β-actin protein, a loading control. Detection of ADMA-containing proteins using Asym26 in CARM1 null MEFs is unchanged (data not shown, available upon request).
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide KFGGRGGGRGGGRGGFGGRGGRG with arg residues containing asymmetric dimethylation (ADMA), conjugated to KLH.
Formulation
Rabbit serum with 30% glycerol and 0.035% sodium azide.
Application Notes
Asym26 antibody is useful for Western blotting (1:500 – 1:2,000 dilution) to detect ADMA on a variety proteins.
