Anti-METTL2A antibodies are used in the immunodetection of the protein methyltransferase 2A, tRNA N3-cytidine. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 378 amino acid residues and a mass of 43.5 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cytoplasm. Up to 2 different isoforms have been reported for this protein. A member of the METL protein family, METTL2A is reported to be a S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent methyltransferase that mediates N(3)-methylcytidine modification of residue 32 of the tRNA anticodon loop of tRNA(Thr)(UGU) and tRNA(Arg)(CCU). Synonyms for this target antigen include methyltransferase like 2A, methyltransferase-like protein 2A, and tRNA N(3)-methylcytidine methyltransferase METTL2A. METTL2A gene orthologs have been reported in the mouse, rat, bovine, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some METTL2A antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. ELISA, Western Blot, Immunofluorescence, and Immunohistochemistry are common applications for these antibodies.
