Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP)
(AbFlex EED Antibody (rAb) tested by ChIP-Seq. ChIP was performed using the ChIP-IT High Sensitivity Kit with 30 ug chromatin from an acute large B-cell lymphoma cell line and 4 ug of EED antibody. ChIP DNA was sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq and 25 million sequence tags were mapped to identify EED binding sites. The image shows binding across a region of chromosome 6.)
Testing Data
(AbFlex EED antibody (rAb) tested by Luminex bead-based specificity analysis. Luminex bead-based specificity analysis was used to confirm the specificity of AbFlexTM EED antibody (rAb) for EED. Various proteins were conjugated to MagPlex Luminex beads and incubated with various amounts of AbFlexTM EED antibody (rAb). Protein-bound antibody was detected with anti-mouse IgG-Phycoerythrin and read in a Luminex instrument. Luminex is a registered trademark of Luminex Corporation.)
Background: AbFlex antibodies are recombinant antibodies (rAbs) that have been generated using defined DNA sequences to produce highly specific, reproducible antibodies. Each AbFlex antibody contains a 6xHis-tag, a Biotinylation Tag for enzymatic biotin conjugation using the biotin ligase, BirA, and a sortase recognition motif (LPXTG) to attach a variety of labels directly to the antibody including fluorophores, enzymatic substrates (HRP, AP), peptides, drugs as well as solid supports. AbFlex EED antibody was expressed as full-length IgG with mouse immunoglobulin heavy and light chains (IgG2a isotype) in mammalian 293 cells. EED (extraembryonic ectoderm) is a component of the Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein complex PRC2. The PRC2 complex also contains EZH2 and SUZ12 and is recruited to Polycomb response elements and results in the methylation of histone H3 and lysine 27 and the silencing of gene expression. PRC2 initiates repression of the Hox genes during development and is involved in the maintenance of stem cell pluripotency. EED is a member of the superfamily of WD-40 repeat protein family and is required for PRC2-mediated H3K27 methylation. The PRC2 complex may also recruit platform DNMTs, thereby linking two systems of epigenetic repression.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the Polycomb-group (PcG) family. PcG family members form multimeric protein complexes, which are involved in maintaining the transcriptional repressive state of genes over successive cell generations. This protein interacts with enhancer of zeste 2, the cytoplasmic tail of integrin beta7, immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) MA protein, and histone deacetylase proteins. This protein mediates repression of gene activity through histone deacetylation, and may act as a specific regulator of integrin function. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
EED: a member of the superfamily of Polycomb group (PcG) methyltransferase proteins with WD-40 repeats. PcG complexes mediate chromatin modifications that contribute to transcriptional silencing during development and carcinogenesis. A part of the Polycomb-repressive complex 2 (PRC2) along with EZH2, SUZ12, RBBP4 and RBBP7 and possibly AEBP2. Interacts with HDAC, HDAC2, histone H1 and YY1. PRC2 trimethylates histone H3 on K9 and K27, transcriptionally repressing target gene including HOXC8, HOXA9, MYT1 and CDKN2A. Appears to be overexpressed in breast and colon cancers. Inhibitors of PRC2-mediated gene repression are being investigated as a cancer therapy. EED and EZH2 are also implicated in the silencing of the inactive X chromosome. Three human isoforms produced by alternative splicing or initiation have been described, and additional isoforms may be produced by alternative initiation.

AAA Biotech's EED can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP), Chromatin Immunoprecipitation-Seq (ChIP-Seq), ELISA (EIA). Applications Validated: ChIP-Seq: 4ug per ChIP Bead-based ELISA: 4-26 ng/ml AbFlex recombinant antibodies are genetically derived from DNA sequences of parental hybridoma clones. For details on the parental clone. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the EED eed for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EED, Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
