Product Description

SAH (S-Adenosylhomocysteine) is an amino acid derivative and a modulartor in several metabolic pathways. It is an intermediate in the synthesis of cysteine and adenosine. SAH is an inhibitor for METTL3-METTL14 heterodimer complex (METTL3-14) with an IC50 of 0.9 µM.

application：

SAH is suitable for use:

to investigate whether AdoHcy competes with AdoMet in the down-regulation of reporter activity of LUC reporter gene

as a reagent to study the abundance patterns of SAH and its correlation with vertebrate metamorphosis

in the optimization of the protein (lysine K) methyltransferase SET7/9 activity assay

in the fluorescence polarization (FP) assay during dengue virus methyltransferase activity measurement

as a standard for the measurement of SAH from blood samples by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorimetric detection method
