General description
The building block of chromatin is the nucleosome which is comprised of an octamer of core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) around which 147 bp of DNA are wrapped. Histones H3 and H4 are the predominant histones subjected to covalent modifications.[1][2] Acetylation of histone H4 on Lys16 (H4-K16Ac) is a prevalent modification that plays a role in transcriptional activation by regulating higher-order chromatin structure and protein interactions.[3][4]
acetyl-Histone H4 (Ac-Lys16) is intronless and encodes a member of the histone H4 family. Transcripts from this gene lack polyA tails; instead, they contain a palindromic termination element.
Immunogen
synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 9-18 (Ac-Lys16) of human histone H4, conjugated to KLH.
Application
Anti-acetyl-Histone H4 (Ac-Lys16) antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blot at a concentration of 1-2μg/mL using HL60 cell lysates.

The Sir3 protein helps form telomeric heterochromatin by interacting with hypoacetylated histone H4 lysine 16 (H4-Lys16). The molecular nature of the heterochromatin boundary is still unknown. Here we show that the MYST-like acetyltransferase Sas2p is required for the acetylation (Ac)

MYST1 (also known as hMOF), a member of the MYST family of histone acetyltransferases (HATs) as an epigenetic mark of active genes, is mainly responsible for histone H4K16 acetylation in the cells. Recent studies have shown that the abnormal gene

Acetylation of histone H4 on lysine 16 (H4-K16Ac) is a prevalent and reversible posttranslational chromatin modification in eukaryotes. To characterize the structural and functional role of this mark, we used a native chemical ligation strategy to generate histone H4 that

Histone post-translational modification heritably regulates gene expression involved in most cellular biological processes. Experimental studies suggest that alteration of histone modifications affects gene expression by changing chromatin structure, causing various cellular responses to environmental influences.
