Applications

ChIP Validated Western Blot Validated

Application Notes

Applications Validated by Active Motif:
WB*: 1:500 - 1:2,000 dilution

*Note: many chromatin-bound proteins are not soluble in a low salt nuclear extract and fractionate to the pellet. Therefore, we recommend a High Salt / Sonication Protocol when preparing nuclear extracts for Western Blot.

Published Applications

The following applications have been published using this antibody. Unless noted above, Active Motif may not have validated the antibody for use in these applications:

Immunogen

This antibody was raised against a peptide within the C-terminal region of human WDR5.

Buffer

Purified IgG in PBS with 30% glycerol and 0.035% sodium azide. Sodium azide is highly toxic.

Background

WDR5 (WD repeat-containing protein 5) is a component of the Set1 histone methyltransferase / MLL1/MLL complex that is involved in methylation and dimethylation of 'Lys-4' of Histone H3. H3K4 methylation represents a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. WDR5 is also a component of the NSL complex and it may be involved in acetylation of nucleosomal histone H4 on several lysine residues. WDR5 is also core component of other methyltransferase-containing complexes including MLL2/3 (also named ASCOM complex) and MLL4/WBP7.

Chromatin IP Assays
