Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP) (hMeDIP-chip performed on human brain DNA using 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) antibody. Human brain DNA (2 ug) was immunoprecipitated with 10 ug of 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine antibody. Following hMeDIP, the DNA was amplified, labeled and hybridized to an Affymetrix Human Tiling 2.0R Array. Shown is a region from chromosome 6q containing the ARID1B, ZDHHC14 and SNX9 genes. The results show that 5-hydroxymethylcytosine is enriched primarily in the coding regions of genes, rather than in the gene promoter or regulatory regions.)

Immunoprecipitation (IP)

(5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC, 5-hydroxymethylcytidine) antibody tested by Methyl DNA immunoprecipitation. DNA (25 pg) derived from the promoter of the APC gene was spiked into 500 ng of human genomic DNA and subjected to the MeDIP procedure using 2 ?g of 5-Hydroxymethylcytidine antibody (5hmC, maroon bars) or 2 ?g of control rabbit IgG (IgG, blue bars). Real time quantitative PCR was performed on the immunoprecipitated DNA and results plotted as % of input DNA. The spiked APC DNA contained either no methylation (DNA), 5-methylcytosine methylation (5-mC) or 5-hydroxymethylcytosine methylation (5-hmC).)

Related Product Information for anti-5-Hydroxymethylcytosine antibody
Short Description: Our 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) antibody (mAb)(Clone 59.1) was raised in a Mouse host. It has been validated for use in Dot blot, Immunocytochemistry, Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry and Methyl DNA Immunoprecipitation; it has been shown to react with Human and Mouse samples, but the sequence is not species specific so it should react with a wide range of sample types.

Background: In addition to this monoclonal, We offers two polyclonal antibodies that recognize 5-hydroxymethylcytosine,a whole serum version and apurified IgG version .All are validated for use in methyl DNA immunoprecipitation (MeDIP). For customers that require the ability to quantitate the amount of IgG in the MeDIP reaction, we recommend either this monoclonal or the purified IgG polyclonal. The whole serum version is very high titre and should be used carefully (0.1-0.5 ul per IP) as not to generate high non-specific background. The whole serum version has been used successfully in immunofluorescence (IF, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20639862, 2010), and the purified IgG version is likely to work in this application as well.

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 aCpG dinucleotide. This modification helps to control gene expression and is also involved in genomic imprinting, while aberrant DNA methylation is often associated with disease. 5-methylcytosine is a modified base that is found in the DNA of plants and vertebrates.
A second type of DNA methylation exists,5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hydroxy methylcytosine, 5-hmC). This results from the enzymatic conversion of 5-methylcytosine into5-hydroxymethylcytosine by the TET family of cytosine oxygenases. This antibody was developed specifically to distinguish 5-hydroxymethylcytosine from 5-methylcytosine as conventional methods (enrichment by antibody or methyl DNA binding protein, enzymatic digestion and bisulfite sequencing) cannot do so.
It is possible that5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) represents a pathway to demethylate DNA, as 5-hydroxymethylcytosine is repaired as mismatched DNA and replaced with unmethylated cytosine.

We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
