Immunohistochemical staining (Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) of human brain with 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) monoclonal antibody, clone RM236 (Cat # MAB15116).
Immunocytochemistry
Immunocytochemistry staining of HeLa cells with 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) monoclonal antibody, clone RM236 (Cat # MAB15116) (Red). Actin filaments was labeled with fluorescein phalloidin (Green).
Enzyme-linked Immunoabsorbent Assay
ELISA analysis of single stranded DNA with 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) monoclonal antibody, clone RM236 (Cat # MAB15116). The plate was coated with streptavidin and then biotinylated single stranded unmethylated DNA, 5-Methylcytosine (5-mC) DNA, and 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) DNA. A serial dilution of MAB15116 was used as the primary antibody, and an alkaline phosphatase conjugated anti-rabbit IgG as the secondary antibody.
Dot Blot
Dot blot analysis of double stranded DNA with 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) monoclonal antibody, clone RM236 (Cat # MAB15116). The membrane was pre-spotted with 50, 5, and 0.5 ng/dot of double stranded 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) DNA, 5-Methylcytosine (5-mC) DNA, and unmethylated DNA. The pre-spotted membrane was then blotted with MAB15116.
Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation
Hydroxymethylated DNA immunoprecipitation (hMeDIP) analysis of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) monoclonal antibody, clone RM236 (Cat # MAB15116) at a 10:1 DNA:Ab ratio. 1 ng of unmethylated, 5-Methylcytosine (5-mC) or 5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) DNA standard (897 bp) was spiked in 1 ug of genomic DNA isolated from HeLa cells as the control. Realtime PCR was then performed to determine the capture of DNA standard as in % of input.
