HIRA also known as HIR or HIR/HIRA is a histone chaperone protein that plays an essential role in chromatin remodeling and nucleosome assembly. This protein has a mass of approximately 121 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues with notable presence in the liver heart and skeletal muscle. The HIRA protein interacts with other proteins to regulate the deposition of histone H3.3 which is important for processes like DNA replication and repair.
HIRA participates in the formation of a complex known as the HIRA-ASF1A-CABIN1 protein complex. This complex operates in chromatin assembly and modulates the incorporation of histone variant H3.3 affecting gene silencing and transcription regulation. Interacting with histone proteins HIRA serves an important function in genome stability and epigenetic mark establishment.
HIRA influences the histone replacement pathway significantly impacting gene expression and chromatin organization. HIRA works closely with ASF1A and CABIN1 proteins within this pathway. Additionally in the senescence-associated secretory phenotype pathway HIRA contributes to cellular aging processes by regulating transcriptional outcomes. The modulation of these pathways by HIRA exemplifies its key role in maintaining cellular functions.
Defects in HIRA associate with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and some cancer types such as breast cancer. HIRA alterations can disrupt chromatin dynamics potentially linking it with poor prognostic factors in these diseases. In particular the HIRA gene can interact with other genes involved in cardiomyopathies like MYH7 affecting heart muscle function. Through its role in chromatin remodeling HIRA connects to various pathologies where gene regulation and DNA damage responses are compromised.

HIRA/HIR Western blot staining using rabbit Anti-HIRA/HIR antibody
We recommend to use 1%SDS Hot lysis prepare method.
We are unsure how to define the extra bands.
All lanes: Western blot - Anti-HIRA/HIR antibody [EPR7416] (ab129169) at 1/1000 dilution
Lane 1: HEK-293 (Human embryonic kidney epithelial cell) whole cell lysates prepared in 1%SDS Hot lysis method at 20 µg
Lane 2: HeLa (Human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) whole cell lysates prepared in 1%SDS Hot lysis method at 20 µg
Lane 3: HeLa (Human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) whole cell lysates prepared in RIPA lysis method at 20 µg
All lanes: Western blot - Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ab97051) at 1/20000 dilution
Predicted band size: 112 kDa
Observed band size: 112 kDa
Exposure time: 3min
ab129169 (Purified) at 1/50 dilution (2ug) immunoprecipitating HIRA/HIR in HEK-293 whole cell lysate.
Lane 1 (input): HEK-293 (Human embryonic kidney epithelial cell) whole cell lysate 10ug
Lane 2 (+): ab129169 & HEK-293 whole cell lysate
Lane 3 (-): Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control ab172730) instead of ab129169 in HEK-293 whole cell lysate
For western blotting, VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) ab131366) was used at 1/1000 dilution.
Blocking and diluting buffer: 5% NFDM/TBST.
This antibody works in the lysates prepared with 1%SDS Hot lysis method in WB. No target band in input lane is due to the lysates prepared with RIPA method.

Predicted band size: 112 kDa
Intracellular Flow Cytometry analysis of HeLa (Human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) cells labeling HIRA/HIR with purified ab129169 at 1/100 dilution (10μg/mL) (Red). Cells were fixed with 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 90% Methanol. A Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluorr® 488, Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) ab150077) secondary antibody was used at 1/2000. Isotype control - Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Black).

Cells were fixed in 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% tritonX-100. Cells were counterstained with Alexa Fluor® 594 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) 1/200 (2.5 μg/mL). Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1000 (2 μg/mL) dilution. DAPI (blue) was used as nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.

We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody.
Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.
