Real-time monitoring of DNA methyltransferase activity using a hemimethylated smart probe.

Abstract:

:A real-time assay for DNA methyltransferase (MTase) activity has been developed. A hemimethylated smart probe is used as the substrate for DNA MTase. Cleavage of the methylated product leads to separation of fluorophore from quencher, giving a proportional increase in fluorescence. The method permits real-time monitoring of DNA methylation process and makes it easy to characterize the activity of DNA MTase. It also has the potential to screen suitable inhibitor drugs for DNA MTase.

  • Competitive reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction for the quantification of p53 and mdm2 mRNA expression.

    abstract::Wild-type p53 (wtp53) is a tumour suppressor gene involved in cell cycle regulation. The mdm2 protein can complex with the p53 protein and influence its function as a regulator of cell growth. To detect and quantify wtp53 and mdm2 mRNA expression, we established the competitive reverse transcription/polymerase chain r...
