Rabbit Histone H2BK16ac Polyclonal Antibody | anti-H2BK16ac antibody
Histone H2BK16ac antibody (pAb)
ChIP: 5-10ul per ChIP
WB: 1:5,000-1:20,000 dilution
Note: Many chromatin-bound proteins are not soluble in a low salt nuclear extract and fractionate to the pellet. Therefore, we recommend a High Salt/Sonication Protocol when preparing nuclear extracts for Western blot.
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP)
(Histone H2B acetyl Lys16 pAb tested by ChIP analysis. ChIP performed on HeLa cell chromatin using 39121. PCR was performed using primers specific for the promoter region of the human GAPDH gene. Lane 1: negative IgG control. Lane 2: ChIP using 10 ul of 39121. Lane 3: Input DNA control.)
Western Blot (WB)
(Histone H2B acetyl Lys16 pAb tested by Western blot. HeLa acid extract (5 ug per lane) was probed with Histone H2B acetyl Lys16 polyclonal antibody (1:20,000 dilution). Lane 1: No treatment. Lane 2: Cells treated with sodium butyrate.)
Dot Blot (DB)
(Histone H2B acetyl Lys16 pAb tested by dot blot analysis. Specificity Data: Dot blot analysis was used to confirm the specificity of Histone H2B acetyl Lys16 pAb for acetyl-Lys 16 of histone H2B. Decreasing amounts of modified and unmodified peptides were spotted onto PVDF and probed with the antibody at a dilution of 1:5,000. Lane 1: Peptide acetylated at lysine 5 of H2B. Lane 2: Unmodified lysine 5 peptide. Lane 3: Peptide acetylated at lysine 16 of H2B. Lane 4: unmodified lysine 16 peptide. Lane 5: Peptide acetylated at lysine 120 of H2B. Lane 6: Unmodified lysine 120 peptide.)
Immunofluorescence (IF)
(Detection of H2BK16ac by immunofluorescence U2OS cells were stained with H2BK16ac antibody at a dilution of 1:500. Left panel: DAPI. Middle panel: H2BK16ac antibody staining. Right panel: merge.)
Background: Histone H2B is one of the core components of the nucleosome. The nucleosome is the smallest subunit of chromatin and consists of 147 base pairs of DNA wrapped around an octamer of core histone proteins (two each of Histone H2A, Histone H2B, Histone H3 and Histone H4). Histone H1 is a linker histone, present at the interface between the nucleosome core and DNA entry/exit points; it is responsible for establishing higher-order chromatin structure. Chromatin is subject to a variety of chemical modifications, including post-translational modifications of the histone proteins and the methylation of cytosine residues in the DNA. Reported histone modifications include acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitylation, glycosylation, ADP-ribosylation, carbonylation and SUMOylation; they play a major role in regulating gene expression. Lysine N-epsilon-acetylation is a dynamic, reversible and tightly regulated protein and histone modification that plays a major role in chromatin remodeling and in the regulation of gene expression in various cellular functions. Histone H2A and Histone H2B are acetylated in bulk chromatin by p300 and form acetylated Histone H2A/Histone H2B heterodimers. When DNA associates with intact core histone octamers that contain acetylated H2A/H2B dimers, the inhibition of transcriptional initiation significantly decreases, indicating that acetylation of their lysine residues may mediate transcription. The acetylation of Histone H2B at Lys16 is associated with transcriptional activation and is involved in cell survival process.

Product Notes
The H2BK16ac (Catalog #AAA388376) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Histone H2BK16ac antibody (pAb) reacts with Human, Wide Range Predicted and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Histone H2BK16ac can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP), Dot Blot (DB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Western Blot (WB). Applications Validated: ChIP: 5-10ul per ChIP WB: 1:5,000-1:20,000 dilution Note: Many chromatin-bound proteins are not soluble in a low salt nuclear extract and fractionate to the pellet. Therefore, we recommend a High Salt/Sonication Protocol when preparing nuclear extracts for Western blot. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the H2BK16ac 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 "Histone H2BK16ac, Polyclonal 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
