    Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation (MeDIP), Immunofluorescence (IF), Dot Blot (DB)
    Characteristics
    5-Methylcytosine (5-mC) is a modified base that is found in the DNA of plants and vertebrates. DNA methylation is an epigenetic event in which DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) catalyze the reaction of a methyl group to the fifth carbon of cytosine in a CpG dinucleotide. This modification helps to control gene expression and is also involved in genomic imprinting, while aberrant DNA methylation is often associated with disease. The 5-methylcytidine antibody (Clone A1) has been developed to discriminate between the modified base and its normal cytosine counterpart, allowing for gene promoter methylation analysis. 5-Methylcytosine (5-mC) antibody (mAb) (Clone A1) was raised in a Mouse host. It has been validated for use in Dot blot, Immunofluorescence and Methyl DNA Immunoprecipitation, it has been shown to react with Human samples, but the sequence is not species specific so it should react with a wide range of sample types.
