Description 

Mouse monoclonal [33D3] to 5-Methyl Cytidine

Immunogen 

Recognises the modified base 5-methylcytidine found in DNA of plants and vertebrates.

Specificity 

Clone 33D3 has been developed to discriminate between the modified base 5-MeCyd and the normal counterpart cytosine.

Application notes 
(see key)

Recommended dilutions
Flow Cyt: Use 10ul of working dilution to label 1000000 cells in 100ul. (see Habib, M. et al. (1999)).
IHC-P: Use at an assay dependent dilution. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol. Sodium citrate buffer pH6.0 is recommended for this purpose. (see Hernandez-Blazquez, F. et al. (2000)).
IHC-Fr: Use at an assay dependent dilution.
MeDIP: Used 5ul in 200ul reaction with 2ug digested genomic DNA from Drosophila (see PMID 17845077).

While older lots have performed well in ICC, we have received inconsistent results with the latest lots. Unfortunatly, we can no longer guarantee this antibody for use in ICC.



Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance 

Cytosine is a nucleobase whilst cytidine is a molecule (known as a nucleoside) that is formed when cytosine is attached to a ribose ring (also known as a ribofuranose) via a ß-N1-glycosidic bond.

Ab10805 recognises the modified base 5-methylcytidine found in DNA of plants and vertebrates. DNA methylation is a DNA modification process, which is involved in the control of gene expression. Reports suggest that in tumours, DNA is frequently globally hypomethylated compared to the DNA from normal tissue.

ab10805 staining 5-Methyl Cytidine in pig embryo (15 to 17 days) tissue section by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue underwent fixation in paraformaldehyde, heat mediated antigen retrieval in Tris-EDTA buffer, permeabilization in Triton X-100 and blocking in 2% BSA for 10 minutes at 25°C. The primary antibody was diluted, 1/100 (PBS + 2% BSA) and incubated with sample for 1 hour at 25°C. An Alexa Fluor® 488 conjugated donkey polyclonal to mouse at 1/250 dilution, was used as secondary.
