      DescriptionCpG WIZ® RARβ2 - Methylation specific PCR assay
      OverviewMethylation of cytosines located 5' to guanosine is known to have a profound effect on the expression of several eukaryotic genes (Bird, 1992). In normal cells, methylation occurs predominantly in CG-poor regions, while CG-rich areas, called CpG islands, remain unmethylated. Aberrant methylation of normally unmethylated CpG islands has been documented as a relatively frequent event in immortalized and transformed cells (Antequera, 1990) and has been associated with transcriptional inactivation of defined tumor suppressor genes in human cancers (Merlo, 1995). The Retinoic Acid Receptor beta2 is expressed at reduced levels in many tumor types as a result of hypermethylation of its promoter region.



      Methylation-specific PCR (MSP) is a new technology for sensitive detection of abnormal gene methylation utilizing small amounts of DNA (Herman, 1996). This process employs an initial bisulfite reaction to modify the DNA, followed by PCR amplification with specific primers designed to distinguish methylated from unmethylated DNA.

      Key Applications
      • PCR
      Application NotesPrinciples of the Technique

      Use of either the CpGenome™ DNA Modification Kit (Cat. No. S7820) or the CpGENOME™ Fast DNA Modification Kit (Cat. No. S7824) facilitates the initial bisulfite reactions, while the CpG WIZ® RARbeta2 Amplification Kit contains the reagents required for the gene-specific PCR amplification reactions.

      • Human
      Entrez Gene Number
      Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a member of the retinoid X receptor (RXR) family of nuclear receptors which are involved in mediating the effects of retinoic acid (RA). This receptor forms homodimers with the retinoic acid, thyroid hormone, and vitamin D receptors, increasing both DNA binding and transcriptional function on their respective response elements. The gene lies within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II region on chromosome 6. An alternatively spliced transcript variant has been described, but its full length sequence has not been determined.
