Catalyzes the transfer of glucose (Glc) from uridine diphosphoglucose (UDP-Glc) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-HMC) in double-stranded DNA. Is involved in a DNA modification process to protect the phage genome against its own nucleases and the host restriction endonuclease system.
Source:Recombinant corresponding to aa1-351 from human BGT, T4 phage, fused to His-tag at C-terminal, expressed in E. coli.
Molecular Weight:~41.6kD
Applications:Suitable for use in the differentiation of hydroxymethylcytosine (HMC) from methylcytosine in DNA, via glucosylating HMC and protecting HMC from endonuclease cleavage. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -70°C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
