Application notes 
(see key)

Recommended dilutions
ChIP: Use 2-4µg per 25µg of chromatin. Every new batch of this antibody is tested at Abcam in ChIP.
WB: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 17 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 15 kDa). Can be blocked with Histone H3 peptide (ab12149).


Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance 

Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Nucleosomes consist of approximately 146 bp of DNA wrapped around a histone octamer composed of pairs of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4). The chromatin fibre is further compacted through the interaction of a linker histone, H1, with the DNA between the nucleosomes to form higher order chromatin structures.

Covalent modifications of the canonical core histones, including acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation, and monoubiquitination are used to mark nucleosomes to create chromatin domains with a range of functions. The information encoded by histone modifications can contribute to the formation and/or maintenance of transcriptionally active and inactive chromatin in response to various signalling pathways.

This antibody is raised using the same immunogen as our popular rabbit polyclonal to Histone H3 - ab1791.

Chromatin was prepared from U2OS cells according to the Abcam X-ChIP protocol. Cells were fixed with formaldehyde for 10 min. The  ChIP was performed with 25 µg of chromatin, 2 µg of  ab12079 (blue), and 20 µl of protein A/G sepharose beads. No antibody was added to the beads control (yellow). The immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified by real time PCR (Taqman approach for active and inactive loci, Sybr green approach for heterochromatic loci). Primers and probes are located in the first kb of the transcribed region.
