Description générale

DNA 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. It represses transcription both directly and by association with known corepressor proteins which include members of the histone deacetylase protein families.

Spécificité

This antibody recognizes the C-terminus of MeCP2, which has been epitope mapped between amino acids 310-492.

Immunogène

Epitope: C-terminus
Full length, strep-tagged N-terminus of rat MeCP2.

Application

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot was used by an an independent laboratory to detect MeCP2 in various, mouse whole brain cell lysates (Jost, K. L., et al. (2011). PLoS ONE. 6(11):e26499).
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot was used by an an independent laboratory to detect MeCP2 in various, mouse WT, but not in MeCP2 knockout brain nuclear extracts (Jost, K. L., et al. (2011). PLoS ONE. 6(11):e26499).
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot was used by an an independent laboratory to detect MeCP2 in various, GFP-meCP2 transfected C2C12 cells (Jost, K. L., et al. (2011). PLoS ONE. 6(11):e26499).
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A representative lot was used by an an independent laboratory to detect MeCP2 in various, mouse WT, but not in MeCP2 hemizygous null brain tissue sections (Jost, K. L., et al. (2011). PLoS ONE. 6(11):e26499).

This MeCP2 antibody is validated for use in WB, IHC, ICC, ChIP & IP for the detection of the MeCP2 protein

Qualité

Evaluated by Western Blot in mouse brain tissue nuclear extract.

Western Blot Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected MeCP2 in 10 µg of mouse brain tissue nuclear extract.

Description de la cible

~75 kDa observed. Uniprot describes an isoform produced by alternative splicing at ~55 kDa The calculated molecular weight is 53 kDa, however MeCP2 has been observed between ~75-100 kDa in western blots (Jost, K. L., et al. (2011). PLoS ONE. 6(11):e26499).

Class I histone deacetylases (HDACs) Hdac1 and Hdac2 can associate together in protein complexes with transcriptional factors such as methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2). Given their high degree of sequence identity, we examined whether Hdac1 and Hdac2 were functionally redundant in

Age is a major risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease, but few studies have explored the contribution of key hallmarks of aging, namely DNA methylation changes and heterochromatin destructuration, in the neurodegenerative process. Here, we investigated the consequences
