Anti-MeCP2 antibody, Mouse monoclonal antibody produced in mouse

产品说明

一般描述

Monoclonal Anti-MeCP2 (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the Men-8 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (NS1) and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of human MeCP2.
Methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) possesses a methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) and a transcriptional repression domain.

免疫原

synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus (amino acids 15-30) of human MeCP2.

应用

Monoclonal Anti-MeCP2 antibody has been used:

• in western blotting
• in immunoblotting
• in flow cytometry
• in immunohistofluorescence
• in immunocytochemistry

生化/生理作用

MeCP2 (methyl-CpG binding protein 2) silences transcription by recruiting the histone deacetylase (HDAC) repressive machinery via recruitment of the Sin 3A corepressor, thus removing acetyl groups from histones and consequently, silencing genes.
Methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) has been shown be crucial for brain development. It part of the methyl-CpG-binding proteins, which are involved in repression of gene expression by binding to methylated DNA. Mutations in the gene encoding MeCP2 have been associated with Rett syndrome (RTT).

外形

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline containing 15 mM sodium azide.
