General description

Histone H3 is one of the 5 main histone proteins involved in the structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells. Featuring a main globular domain and a long N terminal tail H3 is involved with the structure of the nucleosomes of the ′beads on a string′ structure. Acetylation of histone H3 occurs at several different lysine positions in the histone tail and is performed by a family of enzymes known as Histone Acetyl Transferases (HATs).

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human Histone H3 acetylated at Lys56.

Epitope: Acetylated Lys56

Physical form

Affinity purified

Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in HeLa acid extract, sodium butyrate treated HeLa acid extract, colcemid treated HeLa acid extract, recombinant Histone H3, recombinant Histone H4, and recombinant Histone H2A.

Western Blot Analysis: A 1:405 dilution of this antibody detected acetyl-Histone H3 (Lys56) in sodium butyrate treated HeLa acid extract.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes Histone H3 acetylated at Lys56.
