Peptide Array - Anti-gamma H2A.X (phospho S139) antibody [N1-431] (AB303656)
Peptide array analysis of ab303656 at 0.05 µg/ml followed by a Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Fluor 647nm conjugated at 1/50,000 dilution. All batches of ab303656 are tested in Peptide Array against 501 different modified and unmodified histone peptides; each peptide is printed on the array at six concentrations (each in triplicate). Circle area represents affinity between the antibody and a peptide : all antigen-containing peptides are displayed as red circles, all other peptides as blue circles. The affinity is calculated as the area under the curve when antibody binding values are plotted against the corresponding peptide concentration. Each circle area is normalized to the peptide with the strongest affinity. The complete dataset, including a full list of all peptides and information on the position of each peptide in the diagram, can be downloaded here.

Biological function summary
Gamma H2A.X plays a role in DNA damage response and repair. It does not operate alone; it acts as part of a complex with other repair proteins. The formation of gamma H2A.X foci at DNA damage sites creates a signal attracting repair factors that help maintain genome stability. Its interaction with MDC1 and ATM proteins exemplifies its significant role in orchestrating an effective response to DNA damage. Beyond DNA repair gamma H2A.X influences cell cycle checkpoints permitting cells to pause and repair before proceeding with division.
Pathways
Gamma H2A.X plays a pivotal role in the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway. This pathway is essential for detecting and repairing DNA lesions to uphold genomic integrity. Within the DDR pathway gamma H2A.X is closely associated with proteins such as NBS1 and BRCA1 which assist in repairing double-strand breaks. In addition gamma H2A.X is integral to the ATM-ATR signaling pathway where its activation promotes cell survival following genotoxic stress by signaling for damage repair or triggering apoptosis.
