H2AFX antibody (C-Term)

Catalog No. ABIN461975

Product Details anti-H2AFX Antibody

Target: H2AFX (H2A Histone Family, Member X (H2AFX))

Binding Specificity: C-Term

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This H2AFX antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))

Brand: IHC-plus™

Specificity: Recognizes human histone H2AX. H2AX comprises approximately 2-25 % of the histone H2A pool in mammalian cells. The extended C-terminal tail of H2AX contains a serine (Ser139) embedded in an conserved SQE motif, which is rapidly phosphorylated at sites of double strand breaks and stalled replication forks. Phosphorylated H2AX may serve to recruit other repair proteins to the site of DNA damage. H2AX has been implicated in both homologous recombination and nonhomologous end joining DNA repair pathways.

Purification: Immunoaffinity purified

Immunogen: Synthetic peptide corresponding to a region within the C-terminus of human H2AX.

Type of Immunogen: Synthetic peptide

Isotype: IgG

Application Details

Application Notes: Approved: IF (1:400 - 1:800), IHC, IHC-P (2.5 μg/mL), WB

Usage: Immunohistochemistry: This antibody was validated for use in immunohistochemistry on a panel of 21 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) human tissues after heat induced antigen retrieval in  pH 6.0 citrate buffer. After incubation with the primary antibody, slides were incubated with biotinylated secondary antibody, followed by alkaline phosphatase-streptavidin and chromogen. The stained slides were evaluated by a pathologist to confirm staining specificity. The optimal working concentration for this antibody was determined to be 2.5 μg/mL.
