for Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 antibody (pAb)Background

Histone H3 is one of the core components of the nucleosome. The nucleosome is the smallest subunit of chromatin and consists of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histone proteins (two each of Histone H2A, Histone H2B, Histone H3 and Histone H4). Chromatin is subject to a variety of chemical modifications, including post-translational modifications of the histone proteins and the methylation of cytosine residues in the DNA. Reported histone modifications include acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitylation, glycosylation, ADP-ribosylation, carbonylation and SUMOylation; these modifications play a major role in regulating gene expression.

Lysine N-ε-acetylation is a dynamic, reversible and tightly regulated protein and histone modification that plays a major role in chromatin remodeling and in the regulation of gene expression in various cellular functions. Histone acetylation is often associated with transcriptional activation.

Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb tested by dot blot analysis.

Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb tested by dot blot analysis.
Dot blot analysis was used to confirm the specificity of Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb for acetyl Lys79 histone H3. Acetylated peptides corresponding to the immunogen and related peptides were spotted onto PVDF and probed with the antibody at a dilution of 1:5,000. The amount of peptide (picomoles) spotted is indicated next to each row.

Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb tested by ChIP.

Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb tested by ChIP.
Chromatin IP performed using the ChIP-IT® Express Kit (Catalog No. 53008) and 50 µl of Ready-to-ChIP HeLa Chromatin (Catalog No. 53015) per ChIP. Subsequent to the ChIP reaction, DNA was purified from the immunoprecipitated chromatin and a region of the human GAPDH promoter was amplified by PCR.
    Lane 1: ChIP using negative control rabbit IgG.
    Lane 2: ChIP using 10 µl of Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb.
    Lane 3: PCR input control.

Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb tested by ChIP.

Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb tested by ChIP analysis.
Chromatin IP performed using the ChIP-IT® Express Kit (Catalog No. 53008) and HeLa Chromatin (1.5 x 10^6 cell equivalents per ChIP) using 10 µl of Histone H3 acetyl Lys79 pAb or the equivalent amount of rabbit IgG as a negative control. Real time, quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed on DNA purified from each of the ChIP reactions using a primer pair specific for the indicated gene. Data are presented as Fold Enrichment of the ChIP antibody signal versus the negative control IgG using the ddCT method.
