DNA Methylation

DNA methylation events are heritable modifications that regulate gene expression without altering the DNA sequence itself. They serve as regulatory mechanisms for a wide range of biological processes and genetic diseases, and irregular methylation patterns have been associated with certain cancers. As a key epigenetic mechanism, DNA methylation studies are providing researchers with a critical avenue for exploring key biological processes.

Agilent's CpG and promoter microarrays enable analysis of methylation events, while our custom arrays allow you to specify regions or proprietary sequences for additional evaluation.

Through SurePrint inkjet technology, unique probe design algorithms, and validated protocols, Agilent's DNA Methylation Solution, with its set of optimized reagents and hardware, empowers you with the flexibility, sensitivity, and specificity to identify the methylation events that matter most to you. Agilent DNA Methylation microarrays let you study regulatory networks with confidence.
