Epigenetics—Thermo Scientific
Practical solutions for epigenetics research
Recent advances in epigenetics are showing major impact of DNA methylation, chromatin structure, and noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) on gene regulation during development and disease. To meet the needs of scientists working in the epigenetics field, the Thermo Fisher Scientific Research and Development team created the EpiJET product line encompassing reagents for DNA methylation analysis and designed tools for functional gene modulation of epigenetic enzymes and noncoding RNAs.
Our products for DNA methylation analysis enable both 5-methylcytosine and 5-hydroxymethycytosine studies. Stand-alone enzymes and DNA controls are also available for DNA methylation research.
