DNA Methyltransferase

DNMTs; DNA MTases

DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) are a family of “writer” enzymes responsible for DNA methylation that is the addition of a methyl group to the carbon atom number five (C5) of cytosine. Mammalians encode five DNMTs: DNMT1, DNMT2, DNMT3A-DNMT3B (de novo methyltransferases), and DNMTL. DNMT1, DNMT3A, and DNMT3B are the three active enzymes that maintain DNA methylation. DNMT3L has no catalytic activity and functions as a regulator of DNMT3A and DNMT3B, whereas DNMT2 acts as a tRNA transferase rather than a DNA methyltransferase.

DNA methylation is a vital modification process in the control of genetic information, which contributes to the epigenetics by regulating gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. In prokaryotes, DNA methylation is essential for transcription, the direction of post-replicative mismatch repair, the regulation of DNA replication, cell-cycle control, bacterial virulence, and differentiating self and non-self DNA. In mammalians, DNA methylation is crucial in many key physiological processes, including the inactivation of the X-chromosome, imprinting, and the silencing of germline-specific genes and repetitive elements.

    5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine
    99.87%
    5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine (5mdC) is an endogenous substrate of DNA methyltransferases (such as mammalian 5-C-MTase) and binds to DNA dependent on the formation of DNA stem-loop structures. 5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine guides de novo DNA methylation by acting as a methylation mark and activates the methylation of adjacent CpG sites in single-stranded DNA through cis action. 5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine regulates DNA methylation patterns by recruiting methyltransferases to specific chromatin regions, affecting chromatin condensation and gene expression. Its distribution in plant cells is related to cell proliferation and differentiation stages. The methylation level of 5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine is low in proliferating cells and high in differentiated cells.
