for Histone H3 acetyl Lys18 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. Acetylation of histones is linked to a number of specific processes including transcriptional regulation and genomic organization.

Histone H3 acetyl Lys18 antibody tested by dot blot analysis.
Dot blot analysis was used to confirm the specificity of Histone H3 acetyl Lys18 antibody for acetyl Lys18 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 Lys18 antibody tested by ChIP.
Top Panel:
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 Lys18 antibody 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.
Bottom Panel:
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.
