HeLa acid extract (Anacardic acid treated)
背景资料：HeLa acid extract (Anacardic acid treated) was prepared under acidic conditions from cells harvested from a cell culture of the HeLa human epithelial carcinoma cell line that cells was treated with anacardic acid. Acid extraction is performed under conditions that are optimized for solubility of histone proteins.
Anacardic acid is a compound derived from the shell of a cashew nut that has been shown to have antitumorigenic properties. Recent studies demonstrate that the ability of anacardic acid to act as an inhibitor of histone acetyl transferases (HATs) may attribute to its antineoplastic activity. Although the mechanism by which anacardic acid inhibits HAT activity is unknown, it is suspected that, since anacardic acid shares structural similarities with acetyl-CoA, the HAT acetyl donor, it may function to inhibit binding of acetyl-CoA to the active site of HATs, thus blocking cellular HAT activity. The resulting decrease in acetylation of histones and other cellular proteins alters gene expression and protein function that leads to growth arrest, differentiation, and programmed cell death (apoptosis) of cells. These disruptions in normal cell function also have been shown to cause sensitization of anacardic acid treated cells to ionizing radiation.
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 (Anacardic acid treated) is specifically recommended for analysis of mechanisms regulating the activity of HATs, particularly in relation to 1) proliferation, 2) differentiation, 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 30 µM anacardic acid 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。 |
