Designing a Western blot for KDM3A? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the KDM3A Western Blot GuideFacts about Lysine-specific demethylase 3A.
Demethylation of Lys residue generates formaldehyde and succinate. Involved in hormone-dependent transcriptional activation, by engaging in recruitment to androgen-receptor target genes, resulting in H3'Lys-9' demethylation and transcriptional activation.
