Applications

ChIP Validated ChIP-Seq Validated Western Blot Validated

Application Notes

Applications Validated by Active Motif:
ChIP: 5 - 10 µg per ChIP
ChIP-Seq: 5 - 10 µg each
WB: 1 - 2 µg/ml dilution

ChIP-Seq validation was performed by Active Motif's Epigenetics Services; the complete data set is available in the UCSC Genome Browser by clicking here.

For optimal results in Western blotting, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all blocking solutions may also reduce background. Individual optimization may be required.

HDAC4 antibody (pAb) tested by ChIP-Seq.
ChIP was performed using the ChIP-IT® High Sensitivity Kit (Cat. No. 53040) with 30 ug of chromatin from HeLa cells and 4 µg of antibody. ChIP DNA was sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq and 20 million sequence tags were mapped to identify HDAC4 binding sites. The image shows binding across a region of chromosome 12.

Background

HDAC4 (Histone Deacetylase 4) is a member of the class IIa mammalian histone deacetylases (HDACs) involved in regulating chromatin structure during transcription. These enzymes catalyze the removal of acetyl groups from lysine residues of histones and other cellular proteins. Lysine N-ε-acetylation is a dynamic, reversible and tightly regulated protein and histone modification that plays a major role in regulation of gene expression in various cellular functions. It consists of the transfer of an acetyl moiety from an acetyl coenzyme A to the ε-amino group of a lysine residue. In vivo, acetylation is controlled by the antagonistic activities of histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). The HDACs are grouped into four classes, on the basis of similarity to yeast counterparts: HDAC class I (HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3 and HDAC8), class II (HDAC4, HDAC5, HDAC6, HDAC7, 9 and 10), class III (SIRT1-7) and class IV (HDAC11).

Unlike other deacetylases, HDAC4 shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm and serves as a nuclear co-repressor that regulates bone and muscle development. HDAC4 interacts with the myocyte enhancer factors Mef2a, Mef2c and Mef2d. It also forms part of a multi-protein complex with RbAp48 and HDAC3. HDAC4 is ubiquitous.
