Target Details

Target: Methylglyoxal (MG)

Target Type: Chemical

Background: Methylglyoxal (MG), an endogenous metabolite that increases in diabetes and is a common intermediate in the Maillard reaction (glycation), reacts with proteins and forms advanced glycation end products. MG reacts with arginine residue in protein and forms numerous numbers of adducts, such as argpyrimidine. This antibody is specific for argpyrimidine.
