ChIPAb+ Monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) - ChIP Validated Antibody and Primer Set

General description

All ChIPAb+ antibodies are individually validated for chromatin precipitation, every lot, every time. Each ChIPAb+ antibody set includes control primers (tested every lot by qPCR) to biologically validate your IP results in a locus-specific context. The qPCR protocol and primer sequences are provided, allowing researchers to validate ChIP protocols when using our antibody in their chromatin context. Each set also includes a negative control antibody to ensure specificity of the ChIP reaction.
The ChIPAb+ Monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) set includes the monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) antibody, a Normal Rabbit IgG, and control primers which amplify a 213 bp region of the human GAPDH coding region. The Monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) and negative controls are supplied in a scalable "per ChIP" reaction size and can be used to functionally validate the precipitation of Monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) associated chromatin.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes the N-terminus of Histone H3 monomethylated at Lys36.

Wide species cross reactivity is predicted based on sequence similarity.

Immunogen

Epitope: Monomethylated Histone H3 Lys36

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the N-terminus of human Histone H3 monomethylated at Lys36.

Application

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:

Sonicated chromatin prepared from HeLa cells (1e5 cell equivalents per IP) were subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation using 1 µg of Normal Rabbit IgG, or 3 µL (1 µg) Anti-Monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) and the Magna ChIP HiSens (Cat. # 17-10460). Successful immunoprecipitation of monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) associated DNA fragments was verified by qPCR using ChIP Primers, GAPDH coding D2 as a positive locus, and GAPDH promoter as a negative locus.

Data is presented as percent input of each IP sample relative to input chromatin for each amplicon and ChIP sample as indicated. Please refer to the Magna ChIP HiSens (Cat. # 17-10460) or EZ-MagnaChIP HiSens(Cat. # 17-10461) protocol for experimental details.

Western Blotting Analysis:
HeLa acid extract and various recombinant Histone proteins were probed with Anti-monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) (0.05 µg /mL).

Immunoprecipitation Analysis:

10 µg from a representative lot immunoprecipitated monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) from HeLa acid extract.
10 µg of this antibody immunoprecipitated monomethyl -Histone H3 (Lys36) from 500 µg of HeLa acid extract.
Arrow indicates monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) (~17 kDa).

Dot Blot Specificity Analysis:

Unmodified and various modified Histone peptides were probed with Anti-monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) (0.5 µg/mL).Histone peptides with various modifications were transferred to PVDF membrane (Cat. #: 16-665) and probed with Anti-monomethyl-Histone H3 (Lys36) at (0.5 µg/mL). Proteins were visualized using a Donkey anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection system.
