Epigenetic TET3 enzyme Webshop
In our Webshop we offer our proprietary high performance TET3 enzymes which allow the selective and efficient oxidation of 5mC to 5caC or alternatively the oxidation of 5mC to 5hmC and 5fC for epigenetic sequencing. These enzyme are fully compatible with all TET based epigenetic sequencing methods including TABS. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2024, 10.1002/anie.202418500. RSC Chem. Biol. 2025, doi: 10.1039/D4CB00315B.

Influencing the Epigenome to cure cancer
All the the technologies were developed in order to find substances that can reset the epigenetic program of cells and organism in order to attack cancer with their misguided epigenome at the epigenetic level. Our first development, compound QE2019-1 shows unprecedented success in treating the diseases AML and MDS in mouse xenograft models.
