PRODUCT

Summary

5-mC antibody detects methylated cytosine, which is a key epigenetic regulatory modification of genomic DNA and is considered a “fifth base”. The 5-mC mark is added by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and serves predominately to turn off gene transcription. It is reversible via a DNA demethylation pathway triggered by the Ten-eleven translocation (TET) family of dioxygenases.
