Product Overview
Clone ACAI-13 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 1 (gene MBD1) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF and immunoprecipitation. The predicted molecular weight is 66.6 kDa; the supplier reports observed bands at 67, 80 kDa.
MBD1 is a methyl-CpG-binding domain protein that recognizes methylated DNA and represses transcription. It recruits histone-modifying enzymes, including H3K9 methyltransferase activity, linking DNA methylation to repressive chromatin. MBD1 is studied in epigenetic gene silencing, neural development and cancer.

Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 1 in the nucleus, nucleus matrix, nucleus speckle and chromosome. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Widely expressed. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
