AffiAB® Anti-Stella Antibody
Stella is a primordial germ cell (PGCs) -specific protein involved in epigenetic chromatin reprogramming in the zygote following fertilization. It participates in protection of DNA methylation in the maternal pronucleus by preventing conversion of 5mC to 5hmC: specifically recognizes and binds histone H3 dimethylated at 'Lys-9' (H3K9me2) on maternal genome, and protects maternal genome from TET3-mediated conversion to 5hmC and subsequent DNA demethylation. It is important for the totipotent/pluripotent states continuing through preimplantation development.
