Human
Conjugated Peptide
Anti-MeCP2 Antibody was produced in rabbits by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide containing the C-terminal region of human MeCP2.
Anti-MeCP2 Antibody was purified by affinity purification. This product reacts with human MeCP2. Cross reactivity with MeCP2 from species other than human is not known.
Application Details
ChIP, ELISA, WB
Anti-MeCP2 Antibody is tested for Chromatin Immunoprecipitation, ELISA and Western Blots. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 70 kDa in the appropriate cell lysate or extract.

MeCP2 is a chromosomal protein with abundant binding sites in the chromatin. It belongs to the family of methyl CpG binding proteins which also comprises MBD1, MBD2, MBD3 and MBD4. MeCP2 can bind specifically to methylated promoters, thereby repressing transcription. This transcriptional repression is mediated through interaction with histone deacetylase and the corepressor SIN3A. MeCP2 also is essential for development. Mutations in MeCP2 are the cause of several types of mental retardation including Rett syndrome, a progressive neurological disorder that causes mental retardation in females and mental retardation syndromic X-linked type 13, and may also be involved in Angelman syndrome and susceptibility to some types of autism. Anti-MeCP2 Antibody is ideal for research in Epigenetics, Embryonic Development and Neuroscience.
