General description

Histone H3 is one of the five main histone proteins involved in the structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells. Featuring a main globular domain and a long N-terminal tail, H3 is involved with the structure of the nucleosomes of the ′beads on a string′ structure. The N-terminal tail of histone H3 protrudes from the globular nucleosome core and can undergo several different types of epigenetic modifications that influence cellular processes. These modifications include the covalent attachment of methyl or acetyl groups to lysine and arginine amino acids and the phosphorylation of serine or threonine.

Specificity

Histone H3 acetylated at position 9.
although this peptide sequence is identical in a wide range of animal and plant species.

Immunogen

Epitope: Surrounding H3K9ac
KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide (ARTKQTARK(Ac)STG-C) corresponding to amino acids 1-12 of Histone H3 with acetylated Lys9.

Application

Anti-acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys9) Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody for detection of Histone H3 acetylated on lysine 9. This purified Ab, also known as Anti-H3K9Ac, is specificity verified by dot blot (DB), published in peer reviewed journals, and validated in WB, ChIP, ChIP-seq, FC.
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation/ChIP-seq Analysis: A representative lot immunoprecipitated acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys9) in 5 µg of HeLa cell lysate.
Dot Blot Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys9) in an Absurance Histone H3 Antibody Specificity Array (Cat. No. 16-667) and an Absurance Histone H2A, H2B, H4 Antibody Specificity Array (Cat. No. 16-665).
Flow Cytometry Analysis: 0.25 µg of this antibody from a representative lot detected acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys9) in 1X10E6 HEK293 cells.

Physical form

Format: Purified
Protein A purified
Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide with 30% glycerol.

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at -20°C from date of receipt.
Handling Recommendations: Upon receipt, and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance.
Note: Variability in freezer temperatures below -20°C may cause glycerol containing solutions to become frozen during storage.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Histone acetylation, a reversible modification of the core histones, is widely accepted to be involved in remodeling chromatin organization for genetic reprogramming. Histone acetylation is a dynamic process that is regulated by two classes of enzymes, the histone acetyltransferases (HATs)
Positive histone marks are associated with active transcription from a methylated ICSBP/IRF8 gene.
