Gene Information

human ... HDAC2(3066)

General description

Histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2), or transcriptional regulator homolog RPD3 L1, is highly homologous to the yeast transcription factor RPD3 (reduced potassium dependency 3) gene. As in yeast, human HDA2 is likely to be involved in regulating chromatin structure during transcription. It has been implicated to associate with YY1, a mammalian zinc-finger transcription factor, which negatively regulates transcription by tethering RPD3 to DNA as a cofactor. This process is highly conserved from yeast to human.

Specificity

Predicted to cross-react with rat based on sequence homology.
Recognizes HDAC2, MW ~60 kDa.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated, synthetic peptide (CEKTDTKGTKSEQLSNP) corresponding to amino acids 473-488 of human HDAC2 (Accession # NP_001518) containing a N-terminal cysteine

Application

Anti-HDAC2 Antibody, clone 3F3 is a Mouse Monoclonal Antibody for detection of HDAC2 also known as YY1-associated factor 1, histone deacetylase 2 & has been validated in ICC, IP & WB.
Immunocytochemistry:
This antibody has been reported by an independent laboratory to show positive immunostaining for HDAC2 in NIH/3T3 and U2OS cells fixed with paraformaldehyde.

Immunoprecipitation and HDAC Assay:
3 μL of a previous lot was used to immunoprecipitate HDAC activity from HeLa nuclear extract, which was then measured using the HDAC Assay Kit (Fluorometric Detection) (Catalog # 17-356). An independent laboratory has also demonstrated positive immunoprecipitation /HDAC assay results using NIH/3T3 cells.

Western Blot Analysis:
0.5-2 μg/mL of this antibody detected HDAC2 in nuclear extracts from HeLa cells.

Physical form

Format: Purified
Protein G Purified
Purified mouse monoclonal IgG in buffer containing 70% storage buffer (0.1 M Tris-glycine, pH 7.4, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.05% sodium azide) and 30% glycerol. Store at -20°C.

Storage and Stability

Analysis Note

Control
Positive Antigen Control: Catalog #12-309, Hela cell nuclear extract. Add an equal volume of Laemmli reducing sample buffer to 10 μL of extract and boil for 5 minutes to reduce the preparation. Load 20 μg of reduced extract per lane for minigels.

Other Notes

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