Background: Chromatin is the arrangement of DNA and proteins in which chromosomes are formed. Correspondingly, chromatin is formed from nucleosomes, which are comprised of a set of four histone proteins (H2A, H2B, H3, H4) wrapped with DNA. Chromatin is a very dynamic structure in which numerous post-translational modifications work together to activate or repress the availability of DNA to be copied, transcribed, or repaired. These marks decide which DNA will be open and commonly active (euchromatin) or tightly wound to prevent access and activation (heterochromatin). Common histone modifications include methylation of lysine and arginine, acetylation of lysine, phosphorylation of threonine and serine, and sumoylation, biotinylation, and ubiquitylation of lysine. In particular, acetylation of H4 Lys16 (H4 K16Ac) plays a role in transcriptional activation and DNA repair. The protein MOF (MYST1) is the primary enzyme to acetylate K16, along with Gcn5, Esal, ATF2, and Sas2. Depletion of MOF reduces K16 acetylation, causing cell cycle arrests, chromosomal aberrations, and a poor DNA damage response. Anti-Histone H4 are ideal for researchers interested in Epigenetics, HA Epitope Tags, Chromatin Modifiers, Chromatin Research, Histones and Modified Histones research.
Gene Name: HIST4H4
- Purification
- Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys16] was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. This antibody reacts with human Histone H4. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with Human, mouse, and C. elegans. Predicted to react with most mammal species. Cross-reactivity with Histone H4 from other sources has not been determined.
- Immunogen
-
Immunogen: Histone H4 [ac Lys16] affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic aceylated peptide surrounding Lysine 16 of human Histone H4.

Immunohistochemistry Dilution: 1:100
Application Note: Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys16] antibody is useful for Western Blot, Dot Blot, Immunofluorescence, and Immunocytochemistry. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately ~13 kDa corresponding to Histone H4 protein by Western Blotting in HeLa histone prep lysate or the appropriate cell lysate or extract.
