Background

KDM1B / LSD2 (Lysine (K)-Specific Demethylase 1B / Lysine-Specific Histone Demethylase 2) is a histone demethylase that demethylates 'Lys-4' of histone H3, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation, thereby acting as a corepressor. Required for de novo DNA methylation of a subset of imprinted genes during oogenesis. Demethylates both mono- and di-methylated 'Lys-4' of histone H3. Has no effect on tri-methylated 'Lys-4', mono-, di- or tri-methylated 'Lys-9', mono-, di- or tri-methylated 'Lys-27', mono-, di- or tri-methylated 'Lys-36' of histone H3, or on mono-, di- or tri-methylated 'Lys-20' of histone H4 (by similarity).

Application Notes

Recombinant KDM1B / LSD2 protein is suitable for use in the study of enzyme kinetics, inhibitor screening, and selectivity profiling.

Specific Activity: H3K4me2 and H3K4me1 demethylase.

Catalytic Ability: > 600 turnovers / enzyme molecule

Histone Demethylase Assay Conditions: 3.3 μM H3K4me2 (1-27aa) peptide was incubated with different concentrations of KDM1B / LSD2 in reaction buffer containing 50 mM TrisCl, pH 8.0, 0.02% Triton X-100, 50 nM FAD for 1 hours at room temperature. HTRF and MALDI-TOF were used for detection.

Recombinant KDM1B / LSD2 protein activity assay.
3.3 μM H3K4me2 (1-27aa) peptide was incubated with KDM1B / LSD2 in reaction buffer for 1 hour at room temperature. KDM1B / LSD2 enzyme was used in a HTRF assay to determine enzyme linearity. Demethylated peptide (H3K4me0) was measured using H3K4me0-specific antibody.

Storage

Recombinant proteins in solution are temperature sensitive and must be stored at -80°C to prevent degradation. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles and keep on ice when not in storage.
