| Description | Binds both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)-containing DNA, It can bind specifically to a single methyl-CpG pair, It is not influenced by sequences flanking the methyl-CpGs, Mediates transcriptional repression through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3A, [UniProt], with a preference for 5-methylcytosine (5mC), MeCP2 is a chromosomal protein that binds to methylated DNA |
| Immunogen | A portion of amino acids 58-87 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this MeCP2 antibody |
| Storage | Celcius or lower, Cycles of freezing and thawing can denaturate the peptide chains of the antibodies and reduce their sensitivity and/or change their affinity, Prepare aliqotes in such a manner so that freeze-thaw cycles are minimized, Aliquot the MeCP2 antibody and store frozen at -20 deg |
| Properties | C, C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°, If you buy Antibodies supplied by NJS poly they should be stored frozen at - 24° |
