JMJD1A (Lysine-specific Demethylase 3A, JmjC Domain-containing Histone Demethylation Protein 2A, Jumonji Domain-containing Protein 1A, KDM3A, JHDM2A, JMJD1, KIAA0742, TSGA)

The jumonji domain containing 1A protein (JMJD1A) was originally discovered as a testes specific gene, but has been found to be expressed in numerous tissues. JMJD1A is a histone demethylase and specifically demethylates mono- and dimethyl-H3K9. It has also been found to be a novel interaction partner with ER71, a transcription factor expressed in the testes of adult mice and during embryogenesis. JMJD1A is also a downstream gene of STAT3, a protein that has been found to be important in the maintenance of mouse embryonic stem (mES) cells, and decreased JMJD1A expression correlated with the differentiation of cultured mES cells following the removal of the cytokine LIF. These findings suggest that JMJD1A might be a critical signaling molecule underlying the maintenance of pluripotency in embryonic stem cells. At least two isoforms of JMJD1A are known to exist. This antibody will not cross-react with JMJD1B or JMJD1C.\n\nApplications:\nSuitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot, Immunofluorescence and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nWestern Blot: 1-2ug/ml\nImmunohistochemistry (Formalin fixed paraffin embedded): 5ug/ml\nImmunofluorescence: 20ug/ml\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nPositive Control:\nMouse Liver Tissue Lysate\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
