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.

For detection of Histone H3 specifically methylated at position Lys 4. This antibody was used in a screen by Dover et al, (2002) to isolate yeast mutants that are unable to methylate Lysine 4. In immunofluorescence, this antibody detects foci in the nucleus that are non-colocalising with condensed chromatin. The perinuclear and perinucleolar heterochromatin are not stained with this antibody.

All batches of ab7766 are tested in Peptide Array against peptides to different Histone H3 modifications. Six dilutions of each peptide are printed on to the Peptide Array in triplicate and results are averaged before being plotted on to a graph. Results show strong binding to Histone H3 - di methyl K4 peptide (Human Histone H3 (di methyl K4) peptide ab7768), indicating that this antibody specifically recognises the Histone H3 - di methyl K4 modification.
ab7766 staining Histone H3 (di methyl K4) in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at 4°C with ab7766 at 5µg/ml and Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control ab7291, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Loading Control. Cells were then incubated with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150081, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed ab150120, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Mouse IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594), pre-adsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Also suitable in cells fixed with 100% methanol (5 min).
Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.
Dimethylated lysine 4 (green) is found in several hundred small nuclear foci that do not colocalize with condensed regions of chromatin (DAPI stained, red). The perinuclear and perinucleolar heterochromatin do not stain with this antibody.

MCF7 cells were incubated at 37°C for 24h with vehicle control (0 μM) and different concentrations of tranylcypromine hydrochloride (Tranylcypromine hydrochloride (2-PCPA), Irreversible monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor ab120606). Increased expression of Histone 3 K4 di-methyl (ab7766) in MCF7 cells correlates with an increase in tranylcypromine hydrochloride concentration, as described in literature.
Nuclear extracts were prepared with RIPA buffer (containing protease inhibitors and sodium orthovanadate), 10 μg of each were loaded on the gel and the WB was run under reducing conditions. After transfer the membrane was blocked for an hour using 5% BSA before being incubated with ab7766 at 1 μg /ml and Anti-Histone H3 antibody - Nuclear Marker and ChIP Grade ab1791 at 1 μg /ml overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit HRP secondary antibody (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) ab97051) at 1/10000 dilution and visualized using ECL development solution.
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 ab7766 (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.
