| Cat.No.: | PE-3827 |
| Product Name: | LSD1 (human), (recombinant) |
| Background: | The mono, di- and trimethylation of particular lysine residues in histone tails (e.g. histone H3 lysine-4 (H3K4), H3K9, H3K27, H3K36, H4K20) are implicated, along with a variety of other post-translational modifications (e.g. lysine acetylation) in the transmission of heritable epigenetic information and the control of chromatin structure and DNA transcription. LSD1 catalyzes the oxidative demethylation of mono- and dimethylated H3K4, producing hydrogen peroxide and formaldehyde in the process. H3K4 methylation is considered a transcription activating chromatin mark and in vivo LSD1 is frequently found in association with the transcriptional corepressor protein CoREST and HDACs 1 or 2. LSD1 is inhibited by a number of established monoamine oxidase inhibitor drugs. That and the fact that its expression is elevated in a number of cancers may make it a promising target for drug development. |
| Applications: | Useful tool to study LSD1 kinetics and inhibitor sensitivity and also the effect of the enzyme in transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression, and oncogenesis. |
