Summary
TET1 antibody recognizes TET1 protein, which is a methylcytosine dioxygenase that catalyzes the sequential steps of DNA demethylation. Expression of TET1 protein is spatiotemporally regulated during embryonic development. Abnormal TET1 activation is associated with cancer growth and metastasis.

Background
Dioxygenase that specifically binds methylcytosine (5mC), a minor base in mammalian DNA found in repetitive DNA elements that is crucial for retrotransposon silencing and mammalian development. Catalyzes the conversion of methylcytosine (5mC) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC). The clear function of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC) is still unclear but it may influence chromatin structure and recruit specific factors or may constitute an intermediate component in cytosine demethylation. 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (hmC) is present in ES cells and is enriched in the brain, especially in Purkinje neurons. May play a role in the fetal development of heart, lung and brain.
