• Reactivity: C. elegans, Human, Mouse
• Application Notes:
  Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys8] antibody is tested for Western Blot, Dot Blot, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation, and Immunofluorescence/Immunocytochemistry. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately ~13 kDa corresponding to Histone H4 protein by Western Blotting in HeLa histone prep lysate or the appropriate cell lysate or extract. Epi-Plus antibody production in collaboration with Novus Biologicals.

Key Properties

• Antibody Type: Primary Antibody
• Host: Rabbit
• Clonality: Polyclonal
• Isotype: IgG
• Immunogen: Histone H4 [ac Lys8] affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic acetylated peptide surrounding Lysine 8 of human Histone H4.
• Purity: Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys8] was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. This antibody reacts with human Histone H4. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with Human, mouse, and C. elegans. Cross-reactivity with Histone H4 from other sources has not been determined.
• Conjugation: Unconjugated

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Rabbit Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys8] Antibody. Chromatin from one million formaldehyde cross-linked HeLa cells was used with 2 ug of Anti-Histone H4 K8ac and 20 ul of magnetic IgG beads per immunoprecipitation. A no antibody (No Ab) control was also used. Immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified using quantitative real-time PCR and SYBR green dye, then normalized to the non-precipitated input chromatin, which is equal to one.
