Characteristics:

Synonyms: rabbit anti-Histone H3 dimethyl Lys18 antibody, H3.3AH3F3H3F3B, H3.3B, H3 histone, family 3A, histone H3.3, MGC87783, MGC87782, H3K18me2

Background: The di-methylated K18 on histone H3 is a seemingly transient post-translational modification. H3K18 is better known to be acetylated, and occasionally mono-methylated. Suv39h1, a well-studied histone methyltransferase seems to be responsible for the transition of acetylation and methylation at this H3 modification site. The di-methylated K18 on H3 seems to be associated with embryological development and possibly implantation. Anti-Histone H3 are ideal for researchers interested in Chromatin Modifiers, Chromatin Research, Histones and Modified Histones, and Epigenetics research.

Gene Name: HIST2H3C

Purification: Anti-Histone H3 [Dimethyl Lys18] was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. This antibody reacts with human Histone H3.2. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with Human, mouse, and C. elegans. Predicted to react with many species including rat, chicken, Xenopus, Drosophila, and plant based on 100% sequence homology. Cross-reactivity with Histone H3 from other sources has not been determined.

Immunogen:

Immunogen: Histone H3 [Dimethyl Lys18] affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic dimethylated peptide surrounding Lysine 18 of human Histone H3.2.

Immunogen Type: Peptide

Application Notes:

Immunohistochemistry Dilution: 1:50

Application Note: Anti-Histone H3 [Dimethyl Lys18] antibody is useful for Western Blot, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation, Dot Blot, Immunocytochemistry, and Immunofluorescence. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately ~15.4 kDa corresponding to Histone H3 protein by Western Blotting in HeLa histone prep lysate or the appropriate cell lysate or extract.
