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.

Specificity

This antibody cross-reacts with H4K8ac and H4unmod peptides in peptide array assay. However, the cross-reactivity is minimal in ELISA when using optimized peptide concentration (images on website). Further optimization is needed to minimize the cross-reactivity in assays similar to peptide array.

    IHC image of unpurified ab51997 staining Histone H4 (acetyl K5) in human colon formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections, performed on a Leica Bond. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab51997, 1/200 dilution, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. No primary antibody was used in the negative control (shown on the inset).

    For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

    ChIP - Anti-Histone H4 (acetyl K5) antibody [EP1000Y] - ChIP Grade (ab51997)

    Chromatin was prepared from MCF7 breast cancer cell lysate. 5 ug total antibody was preincubated overnight on Protein A- Dynabeads and the chromatin (2X 15 cm dishes - around 15-20 million MCF7 cells) was incubated overnight with antibody-coupled beads. Beads were washed 6 times with modified RIPA buffer (50mM HEPES pH 7.6, 1mM EDTA, 0.7% Na deoxycholate, 1% NP-40, 0.5M LiCL) and one time with TE. DNA was eluted with TE containing 1% SDS, treated with RNAseA and Proteinase K, phenol-chloroform extracted and then made libraries for Illumina sequencing.
