Assay schemes. a Strategy for total genomic methylation. Genomic DNA is restriction enzyme (RE) digested, enzymatically biotinylated via a fill-in reaction with Klenow polymerase and biotin-dNTPs. MBD magnetic beads are then used to select for methylated DNA. Colorimetric evaluation is mediated by SA-HRP which recognizes the biotin on enriched methylated DNA. b Strategy for gene-specific methylation. Genomic DNA is RE digested and methylated DNA is selected via MBD enrichment. Gene-specific isothermal amplification is then performed with biotin-dNTP to generate biotin-DNA polymers which are in turn selected for with SA magnetic beads and SA-HRP for colorimetric evaluation
