General description

Histone H3 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 H3 is involved with the structure of the nucleosomes of the ′beads on a string′ structure. Acetylation of histone H3 occurs at several different lysine positions in the histone tail and is performed by a family of enzymes known as Histone Acetyl Transferases (HATs).

Specificity

This antibody recognizes Histone H3 acetylated at Lys56.

Immunogen

Epitope: Acetylated Lys56
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human Histone H3 acetylated at Lys56.

Application

Anti-acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys56) is an antibody targeting the acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys56) protein, validated for use in WB & ChIP.
Dot Blot (Specificity) Analysis: A representative lot detected acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys56) in an Absurance Histone H3 Antibody Specificity Array (Cat. No. 16-667).

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot immunoprecipitated acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys56) from HeLa cells.

Chromatin remodeling is mediated in part by post-translational acetylation/deacetylation modifications of histones. Histone acetyltransferases (HATs), e.g., members of the GNAT/MYST superfamily, activate gene transcription via promotion of euchromatin formation. Here, we characterized a GNAT family HAT, Spt10 (BbSpt10), in the

Epigenetics refers to inheritable phenotypic changes that occur in the absence of genetic alteration. Such adaptations can provide phenotypic plasticity in reaction to environmental cues. While prior studies suggest that epigenetics plays a role in the response to DNA damage

Gcn5 is a core histone acetyltransferase that catalyzes histone H3 acetylation on N-terminal lysine residues in yeasts and was reported to catalyze H3K9/K14 acetylation required for activating asexual development in Aspergillus. Here, we report a localization of Gcn5 ortholog in

CK2 is an essential protein kinase implicated in various cellular processes. In this study, we address a potential role of this kinase in chromatin modulations associated with transcription. We found that CK2 depletion from yeast cells leads to replication-independent increase

Transcription through noncoding regions of the genome is pervasive. How these transcription events regulate gene expression remains poorly understood. Here, we report that, in S. cerevisiae, the levels of transcription through a noncoding region, IRT2, located upstream in the promoter of
