General description

Histone H2A is one of the 5 main histone proteins involved in the structure of chromatin in eukaryotic cells. Featuring a main globular domain and a long N terminal tail H2A is involved with the structure of the nucleosomes of the ′beads on a string′ structure. The phosphorylated form of H2A.X is thought to be invloved with DNA repair, possibly through reorganizing chromatin into a more open state and allowing the recruitment of proteins to repair DNA double stranded breaks.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of human phospho Histone H2A.X phosphorylated at Tyr142.

Application

Anti-phospho Histone H2A.X Antibody (Tyr142) is a highly specific rabbit polyclonal antibody, that targets Histone H2A.X & has been tested in western blotting & Dot Blot.
Dot Blot Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL from a representative lot detected phospho Histone H2A.X (Tyr142) peptides, but not phospho Histone H2A.X (Tyr142) peptides or other peptides corresponding to modified histones.
