Tested Applications

• Positive WB detected in: SH-SY5Y cells, MCF-7 cells
• Positive IHC detected in: mouse colon tissue; Note: suggested antigen retrieval with TE buffer pH 9.0; (*) Alternatively, antigen retrieval may be performed with citrate buffer pH 6.0
• Positive IF detected in: MCF-7 cells

Recommended dilution

• Western Blot (WB): WB : 1:1000-1:6000
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): IHC : 1:50-1:500
• Immunofluorescence (IF): IF : 1:50-1:500

It is recommended that this reagent should be titrated in each testing system to obtain optimal results.

Background Information

METTL2A and METTL2B are required for the threonyl and argininyl tRNA methylation. METTL2 methyltransferase is responsible for 3-methylcytosine modification of arginine tRNAs in mammals. METTL2A and METTL2B are in higher homology 99%. This antibody detects both METTL2A and METTL2B.
