		Technical Data
M2469-01B	MBD1 (Methyl-CpG-binding Domain 1, PCM1, Methyl-CpG-binding Protein MBD1, Protein Containing Methyl-CpG-binding Domain 1, CXXC-type Zinc Finger Protein 3, CXXC3, PCM1)

Description:
The MBD family of proteins includes MeCP2, MBD1, MBD2, MBD3 and MBD4. MBD1 (methyl-CpG binding domain protein 1) binds to methylated CpG sites and represses gene transcription. MBD1 is recruited to both methylated and non-methylated CpGs by separate domains: the CXXC domain targets the protein to non-methylated CpGs whereas the MBD domain targets the protein to methylated CpG. MBD1 may also interact with histone methyltransferase SETDB1 to repress transcription.

Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
Western Blot: 0.5-4ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
