Liquid or Lyophilized powder

Buffer:

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

Research Areas:

Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling

Function:

Bifunctional DNA glycosylase/lyase, which excises 5-methylcytosine (5-meC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmeC), leaving an apyrimidinic (AP) site that is subsequently incised by the lyase activity

Involvement in disease:

Relevance:

Bifunctional DNA glycosylase/lyase, which excises 5-methylcytosine (5-meC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmeC), leaving an apyrimidinic (AP) site that is subsequently incised by the lyase activity (PubMed:25240767). Generates 3'-phosphor-alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde (3'-PUA) as a primary 5-meC excision intermediate (PubMed:25228464). Prevents DNA hypermethylation, specifically in the promoter of otherwise silenced loci. May be involved in DNA repair through its nicking activity on methylated DNA. Binds with similar affinity to both methylated and non-methylated DNA. Highly distributive behavior on DNA substrates containing multiple 5-meC residues. Involved with Pol IV in the remodeling of the 5S rDNA chromatin via DNA methylation modifications during the first days of development post-germination. Participates in UV-B induced- and oxidative DNA damage repair (PubMed:24155752).

Reconstitution:

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

Protein Families:
