Mammals contain three main classes of histone H3 variants: the replicative histones (H3.1 and H3.2), the replacement histone (H3.3) and the centromeric histone (Cenp-A). Histone H3 is located on human chromosome 6p22.
Specificity
This antibody reacts to Histone H3 acetylated at Lysine 56 (K56ac). No cross reactivity with other acetylated Lysines in histone H3.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide corresponding to the Acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys56)
Biochem/physiol Actions
Histone proteins are basic building blocks of chromatin. Histone H3 K27M mutations in adult cerebellar high-grade gliomas. It controls protein-protein interactions to induce binding of trans-acting factors that drive chromatin condensation.

Histones, the principal protein components of chromatin, contain long disordered sequences, which are extensively post-translationally modified. Although histone chaperones are known to control both the activity and specificity of histone-modifying enzymes, the mechanisms promoting modification of highly disordered substrates, such
