The Rabbit Polyclonal anti-Histone H2A antibody (ABIN7874656) specifically detects Histone H2A in WB and IHC (p).
The antibody is reactive with Zebrafish (Danio rerio) samples.
Optimal dilution of the Zebrafish H2ax antibody should be determined by the researcher.

Background
H2A histone family member X (usually abbreviated as H2AX) is a type of histone protein from the H2A family encoded by the H2AFX gene. Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. The linker histone, H1, interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in the compaction of chromatin into higher order structures. This gene encodes a replication-independent histone that is a member of the histone H2A family, and generates two transcripts through the use of the conserved stem-loop termination motif, and the polyA addition motif.
