General description

Methylation of cytosines located 5′ to guanosine is known to have a profound effect on the expression of many eukaryotic genes. In normal cells methylation occurs predominantly in CG-poor regions, while CG-rich areas, called CpG-islands remain unmethylated. The exceptions are the extensive methylation of CpG islands associated with transcriptional inactivation of regulatory regions of imprinted genes and genes on the inactive X-chromosome of females. Aberrant methylation of normally unmethylated CpG islands has been documented as a relatively frequent event in immortalized and transformed cells and has been associated with transcriptional inactivation of defined tumor suppressor genes in human cancers. Hundreds of CpG islands are now known to exhibit the characteristic of hypermethylation in tumors resulting in identification of candidate genes that can be interrogated to determine extent of tumor specific transformation.
Unlike other bisulfite modifications approaches that start with isolated genomic DNA, the CpGenome Direct Prep Bisulfite Modification Kit allows simple and reliable bisulfite conversion of DNA directly from a variety of starting materials, including cultured cells, blood, fresh tissue and fixed tissue samples.

Key Features
  • Bisulfite conversion directly from cells, tissues, blood and FFPE samples without DNA purification
  • Sensitive bisulfite-conversion from as few as 10 cells or as low as 50 pg of input DNA
  • Fast and simple, streamlined protocol for one-step bisulfite conversion
  • In-column desulfonation allows recovery of DNA without additional precipitation steps for more consistent results
  • Suitable for downstream analysis by methlylation specific PCR, restriction digestion, sequencing, microarray hybridization, etc.

Shaping Epigenetics Discovery - DNA Methylation Brochure

DNA methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism regulating gene silencing, imprinting, embryonic development, and chromosome stability. DNA methylation occurs on the 5 carbon position of cytosine residues mainly within CpG dinucleotides to form 5-methylcytosines (5-mC). The reaction is catalyzed by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs). 5-methylcytosines residues may also be hydroxylated by TET enzymes to form 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC), which has differing roles from 5-mC. EMD Millipore provides robust tools that enable you to not only detect and quantify 5-mC and 5-hmC, but also to accurately distinguish between these modifications.

CpGenome™ Direct Prep Bisulfite Modification Kit

Unlike other bisulfite modification approaches that start with isolated genomic DNA, the CpGenome™ Direct Prep, and CpGenome™ Direct Prep-96 kits allow simple and efficient bisulfite conversion of DNA directly from your sample. Avoid the need to isolate genomic DNA and perform bisulfite modification of unmethylated cytosines starting with fresh or frozen tissues, cultured cells, whole blood, buffy coat, biopsies, or FFPE (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded) samples.
