A real-time assay for DNA methyltransferase (MTase) activity has been developed. A hemimethylated smart probe is used as the substrate for DNA MTase. Cleavage of the methylated product leads to separation of fluorophore from quencher, giving a proportional increase in fluorescence. The method permits real-time monitoring of DNA methylation process and makes it easy to characterize the activity of DNA MTase. It also has the potential to screen suitable inhibitor drugs for DNA MTase.
