ALKBH7 polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of ALKBH7 protein.
ALKBH7 (alkB, alkylation repair homolog 7), also known as SPATA11, is a 221 amino acid protein belonging to the alkB family. ALKBH7 is one of many homologs of the Escherichia coli protein AlkB. AlkB functions to protect DNA and RNA against damage from environmental methylating compounds by directly reversing 1-methyladenine (1-meA) and 3-methylcytosine (3-meC) cytotoxic alkylation lesions in DNA and RNA. The enzyme acts by oxidative demethylation, utilizing ferrous iron and ?-ketoglutarate as cofactors, 2-oxoglutarate as a co-substrate and molecular oxygen as the oxidizing agent. ALKBH7 is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 19, which consists of over 63 million bases, houses approximately 1,400 genes and is recognized
for having the greatest gene density of the human chromosomes.
