Background:

Modulation of chromatin structure plays an important role in the regulation of transcription in eukaryotes. The nucleosome, made up of DNA wound around eight core histone proteins (two each of H2A, H2B, H3, and H4), is the primary building block of chromatin. The amino-terminal tails of core histones undergo various post-translational modifications, including acetylation, phosphorylation, methylation, and ubiquitination. These modifications occur in response to various stimuli and have a direct effect on the accessibility of chromatin to transcription factors and, therefore, gene expression.

Specificity:

Histone H3 (Tri-Methyl K27) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of histone H3 only when tri-methylated at Lys27.

Alternative names:

H3K27me3

Species reactivity:

Human,Mouse,Rat,Other (Wide Range)

Host:

Rabbit
