HeLa acid extract (Etoposide treated)
背景资料：HeLa acid extract (Etoposide treated) was prepared under acidic conditions from cells harvested from a cell culture of the HeLa human epithelial carcinoma cell line that was treated with etoposide. Acid extraction is performed under conditions that are optimized for solubility of histone proteins.
Etoposide is a chemotherapeutic agent that acts to inhibit the activity of topoisomerase II, resulting in errors in DNA synthesis that eventually lead to G2 phase arrest and cell death. The topoisomerase II enzyme functions to cleave and unwind the strands of the DNA helix to promote chromosomal disentanglement. Once the DNA strands are unwound, the cut ends are religated. Etoposide forms a ternary complex with DNA and topoisomerase II that prevents religation of the DNA strands, causing DNA damage. The antineoplastic effect of etoposide results from the inefficiency of cancer cells, in comparison to healthy cells, to repair the DNA damage. Thus, the effects of the DNA damage produced by etoposide are compounded and eventually lead to programmed cell death in cancer cells.
The HeLa cell line was originally derived from cells obtained in 1951 from Henrietta Lacks, a cervical cancer patient who eventually died from her cancer. The HeLa cell line is one of the oldest and most commonly utilized immortal cell lines in scientific research. These cells are highly prolific and easily sustainable, allowing for flexibility in their application in various fields of scientific research, including cancer biology, virology, and human disease. To date, over 60,000 publications across various disciplines have referenced the use of HeLa cells.
产品描述：
Acid extracts are commonly utilized for isolation and purification of histones.
HeLa acid extract (Etoposide treated) is specifically recommended for analysis of 1) cell cycle progression, 2) DNA damage and repair pathways, and 3) cell survival.
产品应用：
HeLa acid extracts are supplied in dilution buffer (PBS supplemented with 0.5 mM DTT and 2 mM PMSF). Cells were cultured in medium containing 100 µM etoposide for 6 hours immediately prior to harvesting.
产品使用：
Acid extracts have been quality control tested by Western blot.
温度保存：
Lyophilized proteins can be stored at -20°C or -80°C, preferably desiccated. Recombinant proteins in solution are temperature sensitive and must be stored at -80°C to prevent degradation. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles and keep on ice when not in storage.

关于5-hmC
5-hmC是近年来在动物组织中发现的，由胞嘧啶修饰而来。5-hmC在表观遗传学上的功能可能与5-甲基化胞嘧啶(5-mC)不同。尽管到现在为止还不确知其功能，有研究者猜测它在调控基因的表达与关闭过程中起着重要的作用。5-mC的发现让我们不得不重新评估DNA甲基信息，也不得不监测人类的健康组织和病理组织之间5-mC相对分布的差异。在EPI公司的MethylFlash技术之前，我们还没有发现任何直接的常规方法来检测5- hmC,以及区分5-hmC和5-mC
5-hmC 和 5-mC的区别
时下常用的DNA甲基化分析方法包括限制内切酶酶切和亚硫酸氢盐或MeDIP介导的MS-PCR和测序，这些技术都不适合用来检测5-hmC，因为它与5-mC事实上很难用这类方法区分开来。为了解决这个问题，EPIk研制了MethylFlash羟甲基化DNA定量试剂盒(荧光法)。本试剂盒提供了一种很经济的方法来检测5-羟甲基化胞嘧啶，并且区分5-hmC, 5-mC, 和 C，使得研究者能够重新评估他们的DNA甲基化信息，也能够在新样品中寻找DNA羟甲基化。 |
