Histone H4 Antibody / Chromatin Structure Marker Antibody detects Histone H4, one of the four core histone proteins that form the nucleosome. Histone H4 is encoded by multiple highly conserved H4C genes and, together with Histone H3, forms an H3-H4 tetramer that associates with two H2A-H2B dimers to create the histone octamer. DNA wraps around this octamer to form the nucleosome, the fundamental structural unit of chromatin.
The organization of DNA into nucleosomes enables genomic DNA to be compacted while maintaining regulated access to genetic information. Chromatin structure is dynamically reorganized during transcription, DNA replication and DNA repair, processes that require changes in nucleosome positioning and accessibility. Histone H4 is therefore widely studied as a core component of chromatin and a marker of nuclear chromatin structure. A Histone H4 Antibody can support studies examining histone abundance, nucleosome organization and chromatin-associated processes.
The N-terminal tail of Histone H4 is subject to numerous post-translational modifications, including acetylation and methylation. These modifications can influence chromatin organization and interactions with chromatin-associated proteins, contributing to regulation of gene expression and other nuclear processes. Histone H4 also participates in interactions between neighboring nucleosomes that contribute to higher-order chromatin organization, making it an important target in epigenetics and chromatin biology.
Canonical Histone H4 is encoded by multiple closely related genes that produce the same or highly conserved Histone H4 protein. This Histone H4 Antibody recognizes Histone H4 associated with H4C1, H4C2, H4C3, H4C4, H4C5, H4C6, H4C8, H4C9, H4C11, H4C12, H4C13, H4C14, H4C15 and H4C16. Because of the high sequence conservation among these proteins, the antibody is suited to detection of total Histone H4 rather than discrimination among individual H4C gene products.
NSJ Bioreagents offers Histone H4 Antibody reagents for investigating this highly conserved component of the nucleosome. A Chromatin Structure Marker Antibody targeting Histone H4 can support research into nucleosome organization, chromatin structure, epigenetic regulation, transcription, DNA replication and DNA repair.
This antibody is part of our broader Histone H4 antibody collection, including acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, and total H4 detection reagents for chromatin and epigenetics research.
Optimal dilution of the Histone H4 Antibody / Chromatin Structure Marker Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
E.coli-derived human Histone H4 recombinant protein (Position: A16-R96) was used as the immunogen for the Histone H4 Antibody.
After reconstitution, the Histone H4 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
