Description:
The nucleosome, made up of four core histone proteins (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4), is the primary building block of chromatin. Originally thought to function as a static scaffold for DNA packaging, histones have now been shown to be dynamic proteins, undergoing multiple types of post-translational modifications, including acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation and ubiquitination (1).
Applications:
Suitable for use in Immunofluorescence, Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Immunofluorescence (IC): 1:400
Western Blot: 1:1000
Immunoprecipitation: 1:50
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation: 1:25
Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 1:100
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.

| Immunogen: |
| Synthetic peptide corresponding to the amino terminus of histone H3 in which Lys27 is tri-methylated (KLH). Species Sequence Homology: Xenopus (100%). |
| Purity: |
| Purified by Immunoaffinity chromatography. |
| Form |
| Supplied as a liquid in 10mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 150mM sodium chloride, 0.1mg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol. |
| Specificity: |
| Recognizes endogenous levels of human histone H3 only when tri-methylated on Lys27. Does not crossreact with non-methylated, mono-methylated or di-methylated Lys27. In addition, the antibody does not crossreact with mono-methylated, di-methylated or tri-methylated histone H3 at Lys4, Lys9, Lys36 or Histone H4 at Lys20. Species Crossreactivity: human, mouse, rat and monkey. |
