AcdK
Catalog No. A86142

AcdK is a non-natural amino acid that serves as a precursor to allysine. It facilitates site-specific incorporation into target proteins in Escherichia coli through the amber suppression strategy. AcdK supports the modification of target proteins via lysine dimethylation or monomethylation, enabling the synthesis of site-specific lysine-methylated variants of histone H3 and p53. This reagent is valuable for studying the substrate specificity and catalytic functions of epigenetic enzymes in various research applications.
