HeLa cells were stained using Histone H2A.XS139ph antibody (Clone RM224) at 2 µg/ml (red). Actin filaments have been labeled with fluorescein phalloidin (green).

Background

Histone H2AX phospho Ser139 (H2AX, H2A histone family member X) replaces conventional H2A in a subset of nucleosomes. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries that require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcriptional regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called the histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. Histone H2AX is required for checkpoint-mediated arrest of cell cycle progression in response to low doses of ionizing radiation, and for efficient repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), specifically when modified by C-terminal phosphorylation.

RM224 reacts to Histone H2A.X only when phosphorylated at serine 139. No cross reactivity with other phosphorylated histones.
