Description
|
Rabbit polyclonal to MBD2
|
|
Immunogen
|
A KLH conjugated synthetic peptide (10-30 aa in length) in the region of 160-177 of MBD2 (Human)

Hu, Ms, Rat
|
|
Specificity
|
This antibody is specific for MBD2 (N term). Rat - Abreview feedback has stated that this antibody works on rat prostate. It gives some non-specific band in rat testis, probably due to presence of other MBD isoforms.

Application notes
(see key)
|
Recommended dilutions ELISA: 1/1000. ICC/IF: 1/50. WB: 1/100 - 1/500. Detects a band of approximately 43 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 43 kDa).
Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance

DNA methylation is the major modification of eukaryotic genomes and plays an essential role in mammalian development. Human proteins MECP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3, and MBD4 comprise a family of nuclear proteins related by the presence in each of a methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD). Each of these proteins, with the exception of MBD3, is capable of binding specifically to methylated DNA. MECP2, MBD1 and MBD2 can also repress transcription from methylated gene promoters. This protein may function as a mediator of the biological consequences of the methylation signal.
