EpiGenie Epigenetics Product Database

We know you'd rather be spending your time discovering some novel disease mechanism rather than purchasing, preparing, optimizing, calibrating and validating the reagents for your lab protocols, so check out these solutions for epigenetics research from our friends at the tool companies. Sure they may cost a little more than the homebrew, but how can you put a price on your time?

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5' hmC) Detection

5-Hydroxymethylcytosine, or 5-hmC is a modified form of 5-mC. It has been shown that 5-hmC and the broadly studied 5-mC cannot be distinguished by sodium bisulfite conversion.

Bisulfite Conversion

Bisulfite Conversion is the use of sodium bisulfite to convert cytosine residues to uracil, but leaving 5-methylcytosine residues unaffected. This allows analysis of DNA methylation patterns.

Bisulfite DNA Amplification

Bisulfite Conversion allows analysis of DNA methylation patterns. After conversion, amplification of treated DNA is the first step in many methylation analysis protocols.

Bisulfite Sequencing Software

Bisulfite Conversion is the use of sodium bisulfite to convert cytosine residues to uracil, while leaving 5-methylcytosine residues unaffected. Sequencing is then used to analyze methylation status.

CpG Island Microarrays

CpG Island Microarrays use probes to short fragments designed to cover CpG Islands throughout the genome for genome-wide measurement of DNA methylation changes.

DNA Methylase Enzymes

DNA Methylases are enzymes that will methylate DNA at certain residues. These can be used create control samples, and/or to help assess the accuracy of a DNA methylation assay.

DNA Methylation Antibodies

DNA Methylation Antibodies bind to either methylated DNA motifs or target specific components involved in the DNA methylation pathway.

DNA Methylation Control DNA

DNA Methylation Control DNA is a DNA sample with a known methylation pattern. This sample can be used as a control in DNA methylation assays.

DNA Methylation Enrichment Kits

DNA Methylation Enrichment Kitsare are optimized systems that bind to methylated DNA. The most common use antibodies or methyl binding proteins (MBPs).

DNA Methylation Sequencing and Pyrosequencing Reagents

After bisulfite conversion and amplification of samples, sequencing of targeted genomic regions can be used to analyze the methylation patterns within that region.

DNA Methylation Sequencing Services

DNA Methylation Sequencing Services harnesses the power of advanced sequencing techniques to identify the sequences of methylated genomic regions within a given sample.

Epigenetic Research Instruments

Epigenetic Research Instruments are devices that automate or simplify epigenetic techniques and protocols.

Genomic DNA Labeling

Genomic DNA Labeling Kits generate labeled genomic DNA targets for use in a variety of array based experiments.

Global DNA Methylation Detection

Global DNA Methylation Detection provides a method to measure global DNA methylation shifts.

HRM Methylation PCR

High resolution melting analysis(HRM)is a real-time PCR-based technique to differentiate converted from unconverted bisulfite-treated DNA to asses DNA methylation

MALDI-TOF Methylation Analysis

MALDI-TOF takes advantage of Mass Spectrometry and Bisulfite Conversions to determine the specific pattern of DNA methylation of CpG sites.

Methylation Dependent Restriction Enzymes

Methylation Dependent Restriction Enzymes cleave DNA at specific methylated-cytosine residues in CpG motifs which have a methyl group, leaving unmethylated DNA intact.

Methylation Sensitive Restriction Enzymes

Methylation Sensitive Restriction Enzymes cleave DNA at specific methylated-cytosine residues in CpG motifs which have lost their methyl group, leaving only hypermethylated DNA intact.

Methylation Specific PCR-MSP

Methylation Specific PCR (MSP) analysis uses bisulfite-treated DNA but avoids the need to sequence the area of interest.

Methylation Specific qPCR

Methylation Specific qPCR is based on Methylation Specific PCR (MSP), but provides a quantitative analysis using real-time PCR.

Methylight Assays

Real-Time Methylation PCR-Methylight assays are used to analyze DNA methylation. MethyLight Assays enable discrimination between unmethylated and methylated sites in the same sample.

Methyltransferase Enzymes

Methyltransferase enzymes can be used to methylate sample DNA, or be used to study mechanisms of DNA methylation.

MSRE Based DNA Methylation qPCR

MSRE based DNA Methylation qPCR uses restriction enzymes (MSREs)to digest DNA at specific sites according to methylation status, which can then be measured by qPCR.

Promoter Microarrays

Promoter Arrays concentrate on targeting promoter regions in the genome and are used in ChIP-chip, MeDIP-chip and promoter sequence enrichment protocols.

Tiling Microarrays

Tiling arrays use short fragments designed to cover the entire genome or areas of the genome in gene expression analysis, transcriptome mapping, ChIP-chip, MeDIP-chip,DNase Chip studies and array CGH.

Whole Genome Amplification

Whole genome amplification (WGA) is a group of procedures that allow amplification to occur at many locations in an unknown genome.
