Concentration Definition: by UV absorbance at 280 nm
Immunogène
This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 1058-1075 of human ESET.
This affinity purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and western blotting. Western blotting shows reactivity specific for human ESET detecting a band at approximately 170 kDa. Specific band detection by western blot is blocked by peptide competition by pre-incubating the antibody with the immunizing peptide prior to reaction with the membrane. Reactivity in other immunoassays is unknown.

The SET domain is a highly conserved, approximately 150-amino acid motif implicated in the modulation of chromatin structure. It was originally identified as part of a larger conserved region present in the Drosophila trithorax protein and was subsequently identified in the Drosophila Su(var)3-9 and 'Enhancer of zeste' proteins, from which the acronym SET is derived. Studies have suggested that the SET domain may be a signature of proteins that modulate transcriptionally active or repressed chromatin states through chromatin remodeling activities. ESET functions as a histone methyltransferase by methylation of Lys-9 of histone H3. H3 Lys-9 methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression by recruiting HP1 proteins to methylated histones. ESET shows a nuclear localization and is associated with non-pericentromeric regions of chromatin, and is excluded from nucleoli and islands of condensed chromatin. Although ESET is a widely expressed protein, it is highly expressed in the testis.
