Cat.No.:  PE-3321
Product Name:  Recombinant Tet1 (1418-2136) protein
Product Overview:  Recombinant TET1 (1418-2136) protein that includes amino acids 1418-2136 of human TET1 (accession number NP_085128.2) was expressed in a baculovirus expression system and contains an N-terminal 6×His-Tag and FLAG-Tag with a molecular weight of 84.3 kDa. The purity of the protein is >75% by SDS-PAGE.
Background:  TET (Ten Eleven Translocation) family proteins are cytosine oxygenases that catalyze the conversion of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC). 5hmC can be further oxidized into 5-formylcytosine (5fC) and 5-carboxylcytosine (5caC) by TET proteins. Methylation at the C5 position of cytosine is an epigenetic modification of the mammalian genome that plays an important role in transcriptional regulation. TET proteins are responsible for initiating the enzymatic deamination process leading to cytosine demethylation.TET1 preferentially binds to CpG-rich sequences at the promoters of both transcriptionally active and Polycomb-repressed genes and modulates gene silencing induced by cytosine methylation by controlling the levels of 5-mC and 5-hmC at gene promoters. TET1 may have the dual function of repressing the expression of a subset of genes through recruitment of transcriptional repressors to promoters. TET1 is important for stem cell maintenance and specification and is involved in the balance between pluripotency and lineage commitment. TET1 plays an important role in regulating adult hippocampal neurogenesis and cognition
