| Cat.No.: | PE-3322 |
| Product Name: | Recombinant Tet1 protein |
| Product Overview: | Tet1 is a member of the cytosine oxygenase family of enzymes that convert 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. Amino acids 1367 to 2039 of mouse Tet1 (accession number ACY38291.1) were expressed in E. coli (MW = 95 kDa). |
| Background: | Ten-eleven Translocation Gene Protein 1 (Tet1) is a DNA-binding protein that modulates DNA methylation and gene transcription via hydroxylation of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC). Tet1 is a cytosine oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of the modified genomic base 5-mC into 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC). Methylation at the C5 position of cytosine is an epigenetic modification of the mammalian genome that plays an important role in transcriptional regulation. Tet1 is 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. |
