Product Overview:
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+ Dimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys4) set includes the Anti-dimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys4) antibody, a negative control antibody (purified Mouse IgG), and qPCR primers which amplify a 213 bp region within the coding region of the human GAPDH gene. The dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys4) and negative control antibodies are supplied in a scalable "per ChIP" reaction size and can be used to functionally validate the precipitation of dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys4)-associated chromatin.
Specificity:
Recognizes histone H3, Mr 17 kDa, dimethylated at lysine 4.
Molecular Weight:
Dimethyl-histone H3 at ~17 kDa
Epitope:
a.a. 1-12
Immunogen:
The dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys4) purified antibody is made against a synthetic peptide (dimethylated at Lys4) corresponding to amino acids 1-12 of histone H3.
Modifications:
Methylation
Isotype:
IgG2bκ
Species Reactivity:
Vertebrates
Species Reactivity Note:
Human. The peptide sequence is identical in a wide range of animal and plant species, so broad cross-reactivity is expected.
Application Notes:
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:
Sonicated chromatin prepared from HeLa cells (2 X 106 cell equivalents per IP) was subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation using 2 µg of either normal mouse IgG, or Anti-dimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys4) antibody and the Magna ChIP G Kit (Cat. #17-611). Successful immunoprecipitation of dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys4)-associated DNA fragments was verified by qPCR using β-globin ChIP Primers versus GAPDH Coding primers (Please see figures). Data is presented as percent input of each IP sample relative to input chromatin for each antibody with the indicated primers.
Please refer to the EZ-Magna G ChIP™ (Cat. #17-408) or EZ-ChIP™ (Cat. #17-371) protocol for experimental details.
ChIP-seq Analysis:
Chromatin immunoprecipitation was performed using the Magna ChIP™ HiSens kit (cat# 17-10460), 2 µg Anti-dimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys4) antibody (cat# 17-677), 20 µL Protein A/G beads, and 1e6 crosslinked HeLa cell chromatin followed by DNA purification using magnetic beads. Libraries were prepared from Input and ChIP DNA samples using standard protocols with Illumina barcoded adapters, and analyzed on Illumina HiSeq instrument. An excess of sixteen million reads from FastQ files were mapped using Bowtie (http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/manual.shtml) following TagDust (http://genome.gsc.riken.jp/osc/english/dataresource/) tag removal. Peaks were identified using MACS (http://luelab.dfci.harvard.edu/MACS/), with peaks and reads visualized as a custom track in UCSC G |
