Description

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.

17 kDa

Immunogen

Epitope: Lys4

KLH-conjugated, synthetic peptide containing the sequence ART[meK]…, in which meK corresponds to monomethyl-lysine at residue 4 of human histone H3.

Application

Anti-monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys4) Antibody is a rabbit polyclonal antibody for detection of monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys4) also known as H3K4me1, Histone H3 (mono methyl K4) & has been validated in ICC, IF, PIA, WB, ChIP-seq, DB.

Immunocytochemistry:
Reported by an independent laboratory.

Peptide Inhibition:
Specificity was confirmed by the ability of 1 μM of the immunizing peptide to completely abolish detection of histone H3 in immunoblot analysis of HeLa acid extracts. (see figure, lane 3). No competition was observed with peptides containing dimethyl-lysine 4, trimethyl-lysine 4, mono-methyllysine 4 or monomethyl-lysine 9 or 27.
