1_N227slash21_PURE_MECP2_Antibody_IHC-P_1_112817
IHC staining of anti-MECP2 antibody (clone N227/21) on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded rat brain tissue. Following antigen retrieval using Sodium Citrate H.I.E.R., the tissue was incubated with 10 µg/ml of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. BioLegend's Ultra Streptavidin (USA) HRP Detection Kit (Multi-Species, DAB, Cat. No. 929901) was used for detection followed by hematoxylin counterstaining, according to the protocol provided. The image was captured with a 40X objective. Scale bar: 50 µm

    ICC staining of anti-MECP2 antibody (clone N227/21) on HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with methanol, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 20 minutes, and blocked with 2% Normal Goat Serum and 0.02% BSA for 30 minutes. The cells were then incubated with 10 µg/mL of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C, followed by incubation with 2.5 µg/mL of Alexa Fluor® 594 conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405326) for one hour at room temperature. The cells were counterstained with DAPI. The image was captured with a 40X objective. Scale bar: 50 µm

Description

Methyl CpG binding protein (MECP2), also known as autism susceptibility to X-linked 2 (AUTSX3), is a nuclear protein crucial for normal neuronal function that binds to methylated DNA, forming complexes with histone deacteylases and turning off gene expression.  MECP2 expression is an X-linked trait. Loss of MECP2 expression causes Rett Syndrome (also known as RTS, RTT, or RS) a neurological disorder which causes decelerated growth of hands, feet, and the head.
