General description

Histone H3 is a core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. Histone H3 lysine 27 methylation (H3K27) is associated with heterochromatin formation and transcriptional repression.

Specificity

Broad species cross-reactivity expected.
This antibody recognizes Histone H3 methylated at Lys27.

Immunogen

Branch peptide corresponding to human Histone H3 methylated at Lys27.
Epitope: Lys27

Application

Anti-trimethyl Histone H3 (Lys27) Antibody is a rabbit polyclonal antibody for detection of Histone H3 trimethylated on lysine 27( H3K27me3). This purified polyclonal is specificity verified by dot blot (DB), published in peer reviewed journals and validated in WB, ICC, PIA.
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: 1:500 dilution from a representative lot detected Histone H3 in NIH/3T3 cells.
Peptide Inhibition Assay: This antibody peptide blocked on HeLa cell extracts.
