Specificity

The specificity of this monoclonal antibody to its intended target was validated by HuProtTM Array, containing more than 19,000, full-length human proteins. DNMT3A is required for genome-wide de novo methylation and is essential for the establishment of DNA methylation patterns during development. DNA methylation is coordinated with methylation of histones. It modifies DNA in a non-processive manner and also methylates non-CpG sites. May preferentially methylate DNA linker between 2 nucleosomal cores and is inhibited by histone H1. Plays a role in paternal and maternal imprinting. Required for methylation of most imprinted loci in germ cells. Acts as a transcriptional corepressor for ZBTB18. Recruited to trimethylated 'Lys-36' of histone H3 (H3K36me3) sites. Can actively repress transcription through the recruitment of HDAC activity. Sadenosyl-L-methionin

Background: DNMT3A

Methylation of cytosine residues is essential for mammalian development by regulating gene expression, gene silencing and genomic imprinting (1). This process is controlled by the enzyme DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase 3A (DNMt3a), which is encoded by the DNMT3A gene and has a predicted molecular weight of 102 kDa. DNA methyltransferases including DNMt3a are involved in de novo cytosine methylation and maintenance of embryonic and somatic cells through the transfer of methyl groups to specific CpG structures in DNA (2). Somatic mutations in DNMT3A are responsible for cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). Hypermethylation of CpG islands in tumor suppressor genes or hypomethylation of bulk genomic DNA are linked with cancer (3,4). Mutations in the DNMT3A gene have also been found to cause DNMT3A overgrowth syndrome and myelodysplastic syndromes.
