JMJD2C (jumonji domain containing 2C), also known as KDM4C, GASC1, JHDM3C ,or Lysine-specific demethylase 4C, is a nuclear protein that belongs to the Jumonji domain 2 (JMJD2) family of histone demethylases. Jmjd2c is an ubiquitously expressed histone demethylase that specifically demethylates Lys-9 and Lys-36 residues of histone H3. Functioning as a trimethylation-specific demethylase, JMJD2C demethylates specific lysine residues of Histone H3, thereby converting the trimethylated Histone H3 to its dimethylated form and playing a central role in the histone code. Through its ability to modify histones, JMJD2C increases the rate of cell proliferation and promotes the expression of a variety of proteins. JMJD2C binds iron as a cofactor and contains two Tudor domains through which it interacts with methylated histones. Overexpression of JMJD2C is associated with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, suggesting a possible role for JMJD2C in carcinogenesis. Two isoforms of JMJD2C exist due t

Myoglobin Polyclonal

Myoglobin, an intracellular haemoprotein expressed in the heart and oxidative skeletal myofibres of vertebrates, binds molecular oxygen and may facilitate oxygen transport from erythrocytes to mitochondria, thereby maintaining cellular respiration during periods of high physiological demand. Antibody to myoglobin labels skeletal and cardiac muscle cells. In combination with other striated muscle markers such as vimentin and myogenin, myoglobin is helpful in identification of rhabdomyosarcoma and tumors with skeletal muscle differentiation. Recently, myoglobin has been reported to be expressed on epithelial cancer cells due to changed metabolic and environmental conditions. Myoglobin expression on cancer cells may play a causative role in tumor progression.
