“…DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification catalyzed by DNA methyltransferase (Dam MTase), which plays a crucial role in the regulation of gene transcription, gene silencing, genome integrity, and cell development , Aberrant DNA methylation is usually caused by abnormal expression of Dam MTase, resulting in various human diseases, including genetic diseases, autoimmune disease, and cancers. − Therefore, sensitively measuring Dam MTase is of high significance for methylation detection and early clinical diagnosis . To date, various conventional strategies have been developed for Dam MTase detection, including high-performance liquid chromatography, radioactive labeling-based gel electrophoresis, enzyme-based immunoassay, and capillary electrophoresis. − Nevertheless, the involvement of radiolabeled substrates, time-consuming procedures, and costly antibodies severely limits their wide applications .…”
