Anti-acetyl-Histone H4 Antibody

产品说明

一般描述

Histone H4 is one of the 5 main histone proteins involved in the structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells. Featuring a main globular domain and a long N terminal tail H4 is involved with the structure of the nucleosomes of the ′beads on a string′ structure. Acetylation of histone H4 occurs at several different lysine positions in the histone tail and is performed by a family of enzymes known as Histone Acetyl Transferases (HATs).

特异性

Recognizes acetylated histone H4.
Cross-reacts with acetylated histone H2B from Tetrahymena and weakly cross-reacts with acetylated histone H2B from HeLa cells. May crossreact with other acetylated proteins.
Other species not tested.

免疫原

KLH-conjugated peptide corresponding to amino acids 2-19 of Tetrahymena histone H4 (AGG(Ac)KGG(Ac)KGMG(Ac)KVGA(Ac)KRHS-C), acetylated on lysines 5,8,12 and 16.
Epitope: a.a. 2-19

应用

Immunoprecipitation:
5 μg of a previous lot immunoprecipitated acetylated histone H4 from 500 μg of acid extracted proteins from HeLa cells treated with 5 mM sodium butyrate for 24 hours.

Immunocytochemistry:
5-10 μg/mL of a previous lot lot gave positive nuclear immunostaining in human A431 cells treated with sodium butyrate and fixed with ice-cold 1% paraformaldehyde in PBS.

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:
This antibody has been reported by an independent laboratory to immunoprecipitate acetylated histone H4 from chromatin.

Epigenetics & Nuclear Function
Anti-acetyl-Histone H4 Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody for detection of acetyl-Histone H4 also known as H4 histone family member A, histone 1-H4a & has been validated in ChIP, ICC, IP & WB.

质量

Routinely evaluated by western blot on acid-extracted proteins from HeLa cells treated with sodium butyrate.

Western Blot Analysis:
0.5-2 μg/mL of this lot detected acetylated histone H4 in acid-extracted proteins from HeLa cells treated with 5 mM sodium butyrate. A previous lot detected acetylated histone H4 in Tetrahymena macronuclei. Sodium butyrate, an inhibitor of deacetylases, was used to enhance detection of acetylated histone H4.
