Specific for the presence of a methyl group on carbon 5 of the pyrimidine ring. General notes Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. Should this product contain a precipitate microcentrifugation before use.While older lots have performed well in ICC, we have received inconsistent results with the latest lots. Unfortunately, we can no longer guarantee this antibody for use in ICC.The Life Science industry has been in the grips of a reproducibility crisis for a number of years. Abcam is leading the way in addressing this with our range of recombinant monoclonal antibodies and knockout edited cell lines for gold-standard validation.

Upon delivery aliquot. Store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycle. Primary antibody notes Ab10805 recognises the modified base 5-methylcytidine found in DNA of plants and vertebrates. DNA methylation is a DNA modification process, which is involved in the control of gene expression. Reports suggest that in tumours, DNA is frequently globally hypomethylated compared to the DNA from normal tissue. The Abpromise guarantee Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab10805 in the following tested applications. The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. IHC-P (4) Use at an assay dependent concentration. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol. Use at an assay dependent concentration. Use 10ul of working dilution to label 1000000 cells in 100ul. (see Habib, M. et al. (1999)).ab170190 - Mouse monoclonal IgG1, is suitable for use as an isotype control with this antibody. IHC-Fr Use at an assay dependent concentration. Notes IHC-PUse at an assay dependent concentration. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol. IPUse at an assay dependent concentration. Southern Blot1/200. Flow CytUse at an assay dependent concentration. Use 10ul of working dilution to label 1000000 cells in 100ul. (see Habib, M. et al. (1999)).ab170190 - Mouse monoclonal IgG1, is suitable for use as an isotype control with this antibody. Form The native context of double-stranded DNA may obstruct antibody binding to 5-methylcytosine. For successful detection of 5-methylcytosine, we recommend that the DNA is denatured to make the nucleotides accessible for the antibody. Denaturing methods vary depending on each application. Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-5-methylcytosine (5-mC) antibody [33D3] (ab10805)This image is courtesy of an Abreview submitted by Ms Sara Maj Wätjen Hyldig ab10805 staining 5-Methyl Cytidine in pig embryo (15 to 17 days) tissue section by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections). Tissue underwent fixation in paraformaldehyde, heat mediated antigen retrieval in Tris-EDTA buffer, permeabilization in Triton X-100 and blocking in 2% BSA for 10 minutes at 25 C. The primary antibody was diluted, 1/100 (PBS + 2% BSA) and incubated with sample for 1 hour at 25 C. An Alexa Fluor 488 conjugated donkey polyclonal to mouse at 1/250 dilution, was used as secondary.See Abreview Publishing research using ab10805?
