| Type: Polyclonal | Host: Rabbit | | Mol Wgt.: 15 kDa | Appl.: ChIP, ChIP-seq, IF, IP, WB | | Format: Aff. Pur. IgG | Reactivity: H, Sc, WR | | Histone H4 K8Ac Antibody Description: Histone H4 is one of the four proteins that are present in the nucleosome, the basic repeating unit subunit of chromatin, consisting of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histone proteins (H2A, H2B, H3 and H4). Acetylation of H4 lysine 8 (by CBP adn p300 in mammals) is associated with transcriptional activation.
| Histone H4 K8Ac Antibody Immunogen: Synthetic peptide corresponding to the amino terminus of human histone H4 acetylated at lysine 8.
| Histone H4 K8Ac Antibody Formulation:Affinity-purified IgG (1 mg/ml) in PBS, pH 7.3, with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.
| Histone H4 K8Ac Antibody Quality Control:This antibody has been validated for use in ChIP, IF and Western blot. It has also been validated for specificity by dot blot and histone peptide array and it has been confirmed that this antibody:
- Is specific for H4 K8Ac
- Has no cross-reactivity to related modifications
- Is unaffected by nearby modifications
| Histone H4 K8Ac Antibody Storage and Stability: Stable for 2 years at -20°C from date of receipt.
| Histone H4 K8Ac Antibody Application Notes:Recommended dilutions:
ChIP 2 - 5 µg per ChIP
IF/IHC 1:50 - 1:200
IP 2 - 5 µg per IP
WB 1:500 - 1:2000
