General description

Symmetrical dimethylated arginine (sDMA) is a product of the post-translational modification, arginine methylation. sDMA is a structural isomer of asymmetric dimethylarginine.
~16 kDa

Immunogen

peptide corresponding to amino acids 99-119 of Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein SmD3.

Application

Anti-dimethyl-Arginine Antibody, symmetric (SYM11) has been used in:
  • co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP)
  • western blot analysis
  • immunoprecipitation

Biochem/physiol Actions

SmD3 at ~16kDa, and other proteins that contain arginines that are symmetrically dimethylated
Symmetrical dimethylarginine (sDMA) is a competitor of arginine transport and is eliminated through renal excretion. sDMA serves as a marker to indicate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and the coronary artery disease (CAD) severity. Elevated sDMA is associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. It might also help in the early detection of chronic kidney disease. sDMA acts as an endogenous marker of renal function. It is associated with tumorigenesis.
