NCBI Description
member of a family of DNA methyltransferases [RGD, Feb 2006]
Uniprot Description
DNMT3A: a DNA methyltransferase required for genome wide de novo methylation and essential for development. DNA methylation is coordinated with methylation of histones. Prefers CpG methylation to CpA, CpT, and CpC methylation. Methylates CpG sites at a rate much slower than DNMT1, but greater than DNMT3b. Methylation is coordinated with methylation of histones. Binds the ZNF238 transcriptional repressor. Interacts with SETDB1 and DNMT1. Can co-localize with heterochromatin protein (HP1 ) and methyl-CpG binding protein (MeCBP). Associates with HDAC1 through its ADD-type zinc-finger. Highly expressed in fetal tissues, skeletal muscle, heart, peripheral blood mononuclear cells, kidney, and at lower levels in placenta, brain, liver, colon, spleen, small intestine and lung.

Product Notes
The Rat DNMT3A dnmt3a (Catalog #AAA3807618) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA3807618 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat DNMT3A. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "DNA Methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. 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.Precautions
