General description

Histones are highly conserved proteins that serve as the structural scaffold for the organization of nuclear DNA into chromatin. The four core histones, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4, assemble into an octamer (2 molecules of each). Subsequently, 146 base pairs of DNA are wrapped around the octamer, forming a nucleosome, the basic subunit of chromatin. Histones are modified post-translationally by the actions of enzymes in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. These modifications regulate DNA transcription, repair, recombination, and replication. The most commonly studied modifications are acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation, and ubiquitination. These modifications can alter local chromatin architecture, or recruit trans-acting factors that recognize specific histone modifications (the "histone code" hypothesis). The modifications occur predominantly on the N-terminal and C-terminal tails that extend beyond the nucleosome core particle.

Immunogen

Epitope: Methylated Arg2

Linear peptide corresponding to human Histone H3 symmetrically dimethylated at Arg2.

Physical form

Rabbit polyclonal serum containing 0.05% sodium azide.

Unpurified

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blotting in untreated and nocodazole treated HeLa cell lysate.

Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected dimethyl Histone H3 (Arg2) in 10 µg of nocodazole treated HeLa cell lysate and demonstrated a loss of signal in untreated HeLa cell lysate.

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at -20°C from date of receipt.
Handling Recommendations: Upon receipt and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance.
