Target data

Function

Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling.

Activity summary

Histone H3 is a core component of the nucleosome playing an important role in DNA packaging within eukaryotic cells. Often referred to as H3 it has a molecular weight of around 15 kDa. Histone H3 is expressed in the nucleus of nearly all eukaryotic cells where it interacts with DNA and other histone proteins to form chromatin structure. Scientists frequently study histone H3 using techniques like Western blotting and immunohistochemistry utilizing antibodies such as anti-histone or phospho-histone H3 to distinguish post-translational modifications.

Biological function summary

Histone H3 participates in chromatin remodeling and gene transcription regulation. As part of the nucleosome complex it influences DNA accessibility and subsequently gene expression. Through post-translational modifications including methylation and phosphorylation H3 modulates chromatin structure. Common modifications include mono- di- and tri-methylation at various lysine residues like K56 which affect transcriptional activation or repression. These modifications form a part of the histone code a framework for regulating chromatin dynamics and genetic information.

Pathways

Histone H3 modifications are integral to several signaling pathways that modulate gene expression and cellular responses. The histone code interpreted by other proteins such as transcription factors and chromatin remodelers contributes significantly to the regulation of the cell cycle and signal transduction pathways like the MAPK/ERK pathway. H3 interacts closely with regulatory proteins including other histones and transcription machinery to facilitate these complex processes.

Associated diseases and disorders

Histone H3 modifications are associated with various health conditions including cancer and neurological disorders. Aberrations in histone H3 methylation are linked to oncogenic transformations with disruptions often found in cancer types like glioblastoma and breast cancer. The alterations in H3 also connect to Alzheimer's disease through interactions with other histone modifications and their impact on gene expression patterns critical for neural function. Understanding these modifications helps provide insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.

    Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde permeabilized with 0.1% TBS-TritonX and blocked with 10% serum for 1 hour at 25°C; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a citrate buffer. Samples were incubated with the primary antibody (1/500 in 10% normal goat serum) for 24 hours at 24°C. An Alexa Fluor® 594-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal (1/500 dilution) was used as the secondary antibody.

    Green - Nucleus staining.
    Red - Histone H3 staining.

    Chromatin was prepared from HeLa cells according to the Abcam X-ChIP protocol. Cells were fixed with formaldehyde for 10 minutes. The ChIP was performed with 25μg of chromatin, 2μg of ab1791 (blue), and 20μl 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.
