McrBC restriction enzyme
McrBC restriction site:
5' ...(A/G)mC(Nn)(A/G)mC...3'
mC : 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, 5-methylcytosine, 4-methylcytosine, n=40-2,000
Supplied buffer: McrBC
Reaction temperature: 37°C
More Information
- Source: recombinant proteins expressed in E. coli
- Concentration: 1 unit /µl
- Substrate for unit definition: pBR322
- McrBC specifically cleaves DNA containing methyl cytosine (mC : 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, 5-methylcytosine, 4-methylcytosine) preceded by a purine nucleotide (Pu : A or G). DNA cleavage by McrBC requires at least two PumC sites within a distance of 40–2,000 bp. McrBC requires GTP for cleavage.
- Each lot undergoes stringent quality testing including overdigestion, genome DNA analysis, ligation-recutting and pKF3 cloning
Applications
- DNA methylation analysis (qAMP: quantitative analysis of DNA methylation using real-time PCR)
- Enrichment of unmethylated DNA (CHARM: Comprehensive high-throughput arrays for relative methylation)
