MeCP2 isoform 1 protein

Formulation:	Provided as 100 uL ready-to-use, in SDS-PAGE sample buffer (Laemelli's buffer) containing Tris, pH 6.8, 1 % SDS, Glycerol and Bromophenolblue blue as tracking dye. The sample is reduced by adding 2% beta mercaptoethanol. The protein concentration is
Storage Instruction:	Store at-20°C for long term storage. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Gene Symbol:	MECP2
Gene ID:	4204
Uniprot ID:	MECP2_HUMAN
Specificity:	This is positive control is recommended for use in combination with MeCP2 isoform 1 antibody STJ501740.
Immunogen:	Purified Protein

Tissue Specificity	Present in all adult somatic tissues tested.
Post Translational Modifications	Phosphorylated on Ser-423 in brain upon synaptic activity, which attenuates its repressor activity and seems to regulate dendritic growth and spine maturation.
Function	Chromosomal protein that binds to methylated DNA. It can bind specifically to a single methyl-CpG pair. It is not influenced by sequences flanking the methyl-CpGs. Mediates transcriptional repression through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3A. Binds both 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC)-containing DNA, with a preference for 5-methylcytosine (5mC).
