Product Overview: DNMT1 (DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase 1) belongs to the DNMT family, responsible for methylation of CpG islands in the genome. DNMT1 preferably methylates cytosines located in hemimethylated DNA and it associates with DNA replication sites in S-phase. The selective inhibition of DNMT1 may lead to demethylation and expression of silenced tumor suppressor genes. Thus, the selective DNMT1 inhibitors could be a new addition to cancer therapeutic agents.
EpiSeeker DNMT1 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit (ab113465) allows the user to selectively screen DNMT1 activity/inhibitors in an ELISA-like format The kit is ready-to-use and provides all the essential components needed to carry out a successful DNMT1 activity/inhibitor screening experiment without the need for radioactivity or any special equipment.
