Dot Blot (DB)
(Dot blot for Recombinant ALKBH5 protein activity. 3 uM m6A ssDNA oligos (sequence: 5’-GTTGCCTGTTCGTGTTGG/m6A/CTTGCCTGT-3’) were incubated with different concentrations of ALKBH5 proteins in a 30 ul reaction system including 50 mM HEPES-NaOH pH 7.5, 100 uM 2-oxoglutarate, 100 uM ascorbate, 50 ?M (NH4)2Fe(SO4)2·6H2O and 1 mM TCEP for 2 hours at room temperature. Then each reaction was concentrated to a final volume of 10 ul. 1 ul of each reaction was spotted onto a positively charged nylon membrane and products were detected by Dot blot assay with m6A antibody .)
Background: N6-methylated adenine (m6A) is prevalent in nearly all RNA types and can be found in all organisms from bacteria to humans. It preferentially appears around stop codons and within long internal exons in mammalian messager RNAs. m6A plays an important role in the efficiency of mRNA splicing, processing, translation efficiency, editing and mRNA stability. m6A also appears in other RNA molecules, such as primary miRNA (pri-miRNAs). ALKBH5 (AlkB Homolog 5, RNA Demethylase, also known as OFOXD1, ABH5) specifically demethylates m6A RNA. ALKBH5 significantly affects mRNA export and RNA metabolism as well as the assembly of mRNA processing factors in nuclear speckles via demethylation activity.

Product Notes
The ALKBH5 alkbh5 (Catalog #AAA388291) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Baculovirus and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ALKBH5, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
