for DNMT3B antibody (mAb)Background

DNMT3BDNA methyltransferase (or DNMT 3B) proteins are involved in DNA methylation in which a methyl group is added to a cytosine residue on DNA, commonly at the C5 position of a CpG dinucleotide. Three families of DNMTs have been identified: DNMT1, DNMT2, and DNMT3.

The DNMT3 family contains two active methyltransferases, DNMT3A & DNMT3B, and one DNMT3-Like protein (DNMT3L). DNMT3B has been shown to be important in the regulation of specific patterns of DNA methylation, specifically de novo methylation. Methylation of mammalian DNA has long been recognized to play a major role in a number of cellular functions such as embryonic development, genetic imprinting, X chromosome inactivation and the control of gene expression. DNA methylation is generally associated with transcriptional repression. Mutations in the DNMT3B gene cause the immunodeficiency-centromeric instability-facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome.

for DNMT3B antibody (mAb)Immunogen

This antibody was raised against a full-length protein corresponding to mouse DNMT3B.

for DNMT3B antibody (mAb)Application Notes

This DNMT3B antibody has been validated for use in Western blotting (2 - 4 µg/ml), chromatin IP (5 µg per ChIP), immunofluorescence (1 - 2 µg/ml) and immunoprecipitation (1 - 2 µg/ml). For optimal results, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all Blotto solutions may also reduce background. Individual optimization may be required.

for DNMT3B antibody (mAb)Buffer

PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Sodium azide is highly toxic.

for DNMT3B antibody (mAb)Positive Control

Whole-cell extracts from 293 cells transfected with DNMT3B can be used as a positive control for DNMT3B antibody.

Chromatin IP Kits & Reagents

Active Motif has a variety of Chromatin Immunoprecipitation kits and reagents for every need. Please visit our Chromatin IP Page to learn about our ChIP kits, controls, chromatin and PCR primers for use with DNMT3B antibody (mAb).

Bridging Antibody to Improve ChIP and IP

Some isotypes of mouse IgG antibodies do not bind well to protein G-conjugated agarose/magnetic beads, which are commonly used in ChIP and IP experiments. Capture efficiency can be improved by including an anti-mouse IgG bridging antibody because it binds with a strong affinity to both the protein G beads and the mouse IgG antibody. By increasing the affinity of the mouse primary antibody for the protein G bead, the Bridging Antibody for Mouse IgG can help improve the results of all ChIP and IP experiments that use DNMT3B antibody (mAb).

Compatible Secondary Antibodies

Active Motif has developed a variety of high-quality secondary antibodies for most applications, with anti-rabbit and anti-mouse conjugates to a broad line of high-quality fluorescent molecules, as well as horse radish peroxidase (HRP). Visit our Secondary Antibody Conjugates page to find the perfect secondaries for immunofluorescence experiments with DNMT3B antibody (mAb).
