REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation:
Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10).
This means that the protein of interest is denatured.
If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

SET7 also known as SETD7 or KMT7 is a lysine methyltransferase that adds methyl groups to lysine residues on target proteins influencing their function and stability. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa. SET7 is expressed in a variety of tissues including the heart liver and pancreas suggesting its versatile role across different biological systems.
Biological function summary
SET7 contributes to gene regulation by methylating histone H3 at lysine 4 (H3K4) a mark generally associated with transcriptional activation. It also methylates non-histone proteins such as p53 TAF10 and STAT3 affecting their activity and interactions. SET7 operates distinctively and does not need to be part of any complex to fulfill its function effectively in diverse cellular processes.
Pathways
SET7 modulates transcriptional pathways such as the p53 signaling pathway and the NF-kB pathway. It interacts with the p53 protein affecting cell cycle regulation and the response to DNA damage. The modification of NF-kB by SET7 can influence inflammation and immune responses. Through these pathways SET7 plays a role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and response to stress.
SET7 is involved in conditions like cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Its methylation of p53 links it to tumor suppression activities while its impact on NF-kB relates to inflammatory responses. Dysregulation of SET7 activity can lead to abnormal cell proliferation and inflammation pointing to its potential as a target for therapeutic intervention.
