Immunogen:
KLH-conjugated, synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 17-28 of Histone H4. Epitope has been mapped to residues 25-28.
Isotype:
Background Information:
Histone H4 is one of the 5 main histone proteins involved in the structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells. Featuring a main globular domain and a long N terminal tail H4 is involved with the structure of the nucleosomes of the 'beads on a string' structure.
Species Reactivity:
  • Human
  • Chicken
  • Vertebrates
  • Yeast (S. cerevisiae)
Species Reactivity Note:
Human, chicken and yeast. Broad species cross-reactivity expected based on sequence homology.
Application Notes:
Epitope Mapping (using Luminex®):
1:250-1:4,000 serial dilutions of a previous lot were incubated with histone peptides containing various unmodified peptides spanning the amino-terminus of Histone H4 conjugated to Luminex® microspheres. The antibody recognized both modified and unmodified peptides (See Figure B Page 2).

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:
An independent laboratory used a previous lot of this antibody in chromatin immunoprecipitation (Issac, C., 2006).
Control:
Acid extracts from both untreated HeLa cells and cells treated with sodium butyrate (hyper-acetylated) or colcemid (hyper-phosphorylated).
Quality Assurance:
Routinely evaluated by western blot.

Western Blot Analysis:
A 1:30,000-1:100,000 dilution of this lot detected unmodified recombinant Histone H4 protein (Catalog # 14-412) and Histone H4 in acid extracts from both untreated HeLa cells and cells treated with sodium butyrate (hyper-acetylated) or colcemid (hyper-phosphorylated)
Purification Method:
Protein A purfied

Entrez Gene Summary:
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 is intronless and encodes a member of the histone H4 family. Transcripts from this gene lack polyA tails but instead contain a palindromic termination element. This gene is found in the large histone gene cluster on chromosome 6.
UniProt Summary:
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P62805 # Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling.
SIZE: 103 amino acids; 11367 Da
SUBUNIT: The nucleosome is a histone octamer containing two molecules each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 assembled in one H3-H4 heterotetramer and two H2A-H2B heterodimers. The octamer wraps approximately 147 bp of DNA.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.
PTM: Symmetric dimethylation on Arg-4 by the PRDM1/PRMT5 complex may play a crucial role in the germ-cell lineage (By similarity). & Ubiquitinated by the CUL4-DDB-RBX1 complex in response to ultraviolet irradiation. This may weaken the interaction between histones and DNA and facilitate DNA accessibility to repair proteins.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P62805 ## Belongs to the histone H4 family.
