The nucleosome is made up of four core histone proteins (H2A,H2B,H3 and H4) and is the primary building block of chromatin. The N-terminal tail of core histones undergoes different posttranscriptional modification including acetylation,phosphorylation and methylation. These modifications occur in response to cell signal stimuli and have a direct effect on gene expression.
应用类型
Western blotting (0.5-4 ug/ml) and immunoprecipitation (20-30 ug/ml). However, the optimal conditions should be determined individually. The antibody detects ~14 kDa histone H2B protein. It does not cross-react with other histones.
免疫原
Synthetic peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of human Histone H2B
