Phospho-Histone H3 (Ser10) Polyclonal Antibody, Invitrogen™

Beschreibung

Phospho-Histone H3 (Ser10) Antibody detects endogenous levels of histone H3 only when phosphorylated at Ser10; however, this antibody does not detect phosphorylated Ser10 when Lys9 is acetylated or methylated. This antibody does not cross-react with histone H3 phosphorylated at Ser28. This antibody is not cross-reactive with other phosphorylated histones or with acetylated histones.

Histone H3 is one of the DNA-binding proteins found in the chromatin of all eukaryotic cells. H3 along with four core histone proteins binds to DNA forming the structure of the nucleosome. Histones play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. Post translationally, histones are modified in a variety of ways to either directly change the chromatin structure or allow for the binding of specific transcription factors. The N-terminal tail of histone H3 protrudes from the globular nucleosome core and can undergo several different types of post-translational modification that influence cellular processes. These modifications include the covalent attachment of methyl or acetyl groups to lysine and arginine amino acids and the phosphorylation of serine or threonine.
