As a monoclonal antibody, binding is driven by a single epitope, which can support consistent recognition but may be sensitive to epitope masking by PTMs or conformational changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Sources (internal):\n- NCBI Gene search ( 5mC) — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=+5mC\n- Ensembl search ( 5mC) — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=+5mC\n- PubMed search ( 5mC) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=+5mC\n- Reactome pathway search ( 5mC) — Reactome — https:\/\/reactome.org\/content\/query?q=+5mC\n--\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"1 mg\/ml in PBS with 50% glycerol, 1% BSA and 0.09% sodium azide \/ 50 ug","offer_id":53043680739693,"sku":"R20245-50UG","price":530.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_9b6e6464-f3ac-438a-a285-376e8efc46dc.jpg?v=1771934405","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/recombinant-5mc-antibody-bha17103731","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
