for Histone H2A, acidic patch antibody (pAb)Background

Histone H2A is one of the core components of the nucleosome. The nucleosome is the smallest subunit of chromatin and consists of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histone proteins (two each of Histone H2A, Histone H2B, Histone H3 and Histone H4). Histone H1 is a linker histone, present at the interface between the nucleosome core and DNA entry/exit points. Histone H1 is responsible for establishing higher-order chromatin structure. Chromatin is subject to a variety of chemical modifications, including post-translational modifications of the histone proteins and the methylation of cytosine residues in the DNA. Reported histone modifications include acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitylation, glycosylation, ADP-ribosylation, carbonylation and SUMOylation; these modifications play a major role in regulating gene expression.

Histone H2A, acidic patch pAb tested by Western blot.

Histone H2A, acidic patch pAb tested by Western blot.
Detection of Histone H2A by Western blot. The analysis was performed using recombinant histone H2A protein (200 ng, lane 1) and acid extract of HeLa cells (5 µg, lane 2) probed with Histone H2A, acidic patch pAb (1:1,000 dilution).

Histone H2A, acidic patch pAb tested by Chromatin immunoprecipitation.

Histone H2A, acidic patch pAb tested by ChIP analysis.
Chromatin IP performed using the ChIP-IT® Express Kit (Catalog No. 53008) and HeLa Chromatin (1.5 x 10^6 cell equivalents per ChIP) using 10 µl of Histone H2A, acidic patch pAb or the equivalent amount of rabbit IgG as a negative control. Real time, quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed on DNA purified from each of the ChIP reactions using a primer pair specific for the PABPC1 gene. Data are presented as Fold Enrichment of the ChIP antibody signal versus the negative control IgG using the ddCT method.
