REACH authorisation
Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.

Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

This product is subject to limited use licenses from The Broad Institute, ERS Genomics Limited and Sigma-Aldrich Co. LLC, and is developed with patented technology. For full details of the licenses and patents please refer to our limited use license and patent pages.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

The MBD4 protein also known as MED1 is essential in DNA repair and gene regulation. MBD4 contains a methyl-CpG-binding domain allowing it to bind specifically to methylated DNA. The protein has a molecular weight of about 63 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues with higher levels in bone marrow and lymphoid tissues. MBD4 can recognize and excise mismatched T/G base pairs at methylated CpG sites which is important for maintaining genomic stability.
Biological function summary

MBD4 participates in the protection of genome integrity. It is involved in the DNA demethylation process ensuring proper gene expression patterns. MBD4 functions as part of complex DNA repair machinery. By working with other repair proteins MBD4 facilitates the correction of errors arising during DNA replication and demethylation reducing the risk of mutation accumulation and genomic instability.

Pathways

MBD4 plays a significant role in the base excision repair (BER) pathway. This pathway is key for correcting DNA damage caused by deamination and other forms of DNA alteration. In the BER pathway MBD4 cooperates with proteins like DNA glycosylases to identify and remove incorrect bases from the DNA strand. MBD4 also interacts with transcriptional regulation pathways influencing how genes are expressed in response to changes in the epigenetic landscape.

The malfunction of MBD4 links to colorectal cancer and other forms of cancer. Deficiency or mutations in the MBD4 gene increase the likelihood of mutation accumulation leading to tumorigenesis. MBD4's interactions with other proteins involved in DNA repair such as MLH1 highlight its role in maintaining DNA integrity. Genetic instability from impaired MBD4 function could trigger or exacerbate progression of cancerous conditions.
