products description :
TET3 Antibody: TET3, a member of the ten-eleven-translocation (TET) family of genes, is a methylcytosine dioxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine and is most abundantly expressed in hematopoietic cells. Unlike the related TET2 protein, mutations in TET3 have not been observed in any myeloid malignancies. TET3 has been shown to be involved in the demethylation of zygotic DNA before the first mitosis and has been suggested to be involved in the epigenetic reprogramming of the zygotic paternal DNA following natural fertilization and may also contribute to somatic cell nuclear reprogramming during animal cloning.

ncbi summary :

uniprot summary :
TET3: Dioxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of the modified genomic base 5-methylcytosine (5mC) into 5- hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) and plays a key role in epigenetic chromatin reprogramming in the zygote following fertilization. Conversion into 5hmC initiates a process leading to cytosine demethylation through deamination into 5-hydroxymethyluracil (5hmU) and subsequent replacement by unmethylated cytosine by the base excision repair system. In zygotes, DNA demethylation occurs selectively in the paternal pronucleus before the first cell division, while the adjacent maternal pronucleus and certain paternally-imprinted loci are protected from this process. Participates in DNA demethylation in the paternal pronucleus by mediating conversion of 5mC into 5hmC. Does not mediate DNA demethylation of maternal pronucleus because of the presence of DPPA3/PGC7 on maternal chromatin that prevents TET3-binding to chromatin. Belongs to the TET family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Oxidoreductase; EC 1.14.11.n2. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 2p13.1. Cellular Component: male pronucleus; cytoplasm; female pronucleus. Molecular Function: protein binding; DNA binding; metal ion binding. Biological Process: protein amino acid O-linked glycosylation; gene expression; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; regulation of gene expression, epigenetic
