Gene Information

human ... H4C1(8359)

Specificity

Recognizes Histone H4 when acetylated on Lys12.
Wide range of cross-reactivity expected based on sequence homology.

Immunogen

Peptide corresponding to Histone H4 containing the sequence [GLG-AcK-GGA] on which Lys12 is acetylated.

Application

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:
Sonicated chromatin prepared from HeLa cells (1 X 10E6 cell equivalents per IP) were subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation using either 2 µL of Negative Control Supernatant, or 2 µL of Anti-Acetyl-Histone H4 (Lys12) and the Magna ChIP A Kit (Cat. # 17-610).
Successful immunoprecipitation of Acetyl-Histone H4 (Lys12)-associated DNA fragments was verified by qPCR using ChIP Primers, human GAPDH Coding Region as a positive locus, and a gene desert region as a negative locus. (Figure 2). Data is presented as percent input of each IP sample relative to input chromatin for each amplicon and ChIP sample as indicated.
Please refer to the EZ-Magna ChIP A (Cat. # 17-408) or EZ-ChIP (Cat. # 17-371) protocol for experimental details.
Western Blot Analysis:
Lysates from HeLa cells untreated or sodium butyrate treated (Lanes 1 and 2 respectively) were resolved probed with anti-acetyl-Histone H4 (Lys12) (1:1,000). Arrow indicates Acetyl-Histone H4 (Lys12).
Arrow indicates Acetyl-Histone H4 (Lys12) (~11 kDa)

The purpose of this work--the first of its kind--was to evaluate the impact of chronic selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor treatment on brain activity using uptake of the radioligand (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose and positron emission tomography ((18)FDG-PET). HDAC dysfunction and other epigenetic

Acetylation of core histones is closely linked to transcriptional activation of various genes. The acetylation levels of nucleosomal histones can be modified through a balance of histone acetyltransferases and deacetylases. To elucidate the role of histone acetylation in human gastric
