Background: 5-Methylcytosine (5-Methylcytidine) 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 33D3) has been developed to discriminate between the modified base and its normal cytosine counterpart, allowing for gene promoter methylation analysis.
Description: Monoclonal antibody raised in mouse against 5-mC (5-methylcytosine) conjugated to ovalbumin. The 5-methylcytosine antibody (clone 33D3) is the most published and widely used antibody for DNA methylation analysis. It has been validated for Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation (MeDIP-seq, MeDIP-on-chip), Immunofluorescence, Flow Cytometry, Dot blot & ELISA.
