New England Biolabs, Inc. EpiMark Methylated DNA Enrichment Kit – 25 reactions

Supplier:  New England Biolabs, Inc. E2600S

The EpiMark Methylated DNA Enrichment Kit will selectively bind and enrich double-stranded methyl-CpG DNA from fragmented genomic DNA with as little as 5 ng of input DNA. Methylated DNA is isolated from fragmented genomic DNA (5 ng-25 ug) by binding to the methyl-CpG binding domain of human MBD2 protein fused to the Fc tail of human IgG1 (MBD2-Fc), which is coupled to paramagnetic hydrophilic protein A beads (MBC2-Fc/Protein A Magnetic Bead). Two Fc domains can be bound to one site on protein A with high affinity (Kd=10-7). As the Fc fragment is a dimer, four MBD2 domains are exposed to the solvent per molecule of protein A, increasing the relative equilibrium constant 100-fold. This stable complex will selectively bind double-stranded methylated CpG containing DNA. After simple wash steps followed by magnetic capture, the enriched DNA sample is easily eluted in a small volume of nuclease-free water by incubation at 65C.
