Working with RNA modifications

The field of RNA modifications is relatively new but growing more and more every day. We know that working with these modifications can be tricky. That is why we are adding to our RNA modifications range all the time to get reagents for the newest and most exciting modifications before anyone else. We also know that getting antibodies truly specific to your RNA modification of choice can be difficult, so we use multiple applications to test the specificity of all our antibodies.

You can get the best reagents for your RNA modification research right here. Our m6A antibody has been cited in several significant publications, including a Nature Methods paper, which uses it for single-base resolution sequencing of m6A1. This same m6A antibody also features in a Nature paper, looking at the role of m6A in mRNA stability2. Our ac4C antibody was also published in a 2018 Cell paper, which uncovers the role of ac4C in mRNA translation efficiency3

The benefits of using recombinant technology

Recombinant technology eliminates batch-to-batch variation by using the same immunogen for each round of antibody production. This gives you a consistent antibody and reproducible results throughout your project. Many of our RNA modification antibodies are recombinant monoclonal antibodies, including key targets such as m6A, m1A, Mettl3, m2,2G, and many more.
