Cat.No.:  PE-3334
Product Name:  Recombinant DNMT3A / DNMT3L complex
Product Overview:  Recombinant DNMT3A / DNMT3L complex that includes human DNMT3A amino acids 214-912 (accession number NP_783328.1) with an N-terminal 6×His-Tag and FLAG-Tag and full length DNMT3L (accession number NP_787063.1) with an N-terminal 6×His-Tag was expressed in Sf9 cells. The molecular weights of DNMT3A and DNMT3L are 83.8 kDa and 46.6 kDa, respectively. The recombinant protein is >95% pure by SDS-PAGE.
Background:  DNA methyltransferase proteins such as DNMT3A 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. DNMT3A has been shown to be important in the regulation of specific patterns of DNA 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 control of gene expression. DNA methylation is generally associated with transcriptional repression.Three families of DNMTs have been identified: DNMT1, DNMT2 and DNMT3. The DNMT3 family, containing two active methyltransferases, DNMT3A & DNMT3B, and one DNMT3-Like protein (DNMT3L), establishes the initial CpG methylation pattern de novo and shows the same propensity for methylating unmethylated duplex DNA as for hemi-methylated DNA. DNMT3A and DNMT3B are encoded by two distinct genes and are strongly expressed in embryonic stem cells. DNMT3A is ubiquitous in mammalian cells. DNMT3L is a nuclear protein with similarity to the DNMT family of proteins, but does not function as a DNA methyltransferase. It serves as an essential regulator of DNMT3A and DNMT3B, recruiting them to sites for deposition of de novo DNA methylation.
