Descripción

Descripción general

NA methyltransferases methylate the 5-position of cytosine in the context of CpG dinucleotides. DNA methylation is crucial for normal embryonic development, imprinting, and X chromosome inactivation. Methyl CpG binding proteins (MeCPs) specifically recognize methylated regions of DNA and repress transcription both directly and by association with known corepressor proteins which include members of the histone deacetylase protein families.

Especificidad

Predicted to cross-react with human based on the conservation of the immunogenic sequence.

Recognizes MeCP2, Mr 75 kDa. A protein at ~75 kDa was also observed in HeLa nuclear extract. This protein was competed by pre-incubation of the antibody with the immunogenic peptide, suggesting that some HeLa strains contain MeCP2 or a related protein, contrary to a previous report.

Inmunógeno

KLH-conjugated, synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 465-478 of mouse MeCP2 (C-PRPNREEPVDSRTP) with an N-terminal cysteine added for conjugation purposes.
