General description

H2AX is involved in DNA repair and the maintenance of genomic stability. It is been implicated both in homologous recombination and nonhomologous end joining DNA repair pathways. H2AX is thought to have a critical function in the recruitment of DNA repair factors and DNA damage-signaling proteins. H2A.X is ubiquitinated by RING1 and RNF2/RING2 complex providing a specific mark for transcriptional repression. In addition this protein can be ubiquitinated by the E2 ligase UBE2N and the E3 ligases RNF8 and RNF168 as result of double-stranded DNA breaks to recruit repair proteins a damaged site. H2AX is phosphorylated soon after the appearance of double-stranded breaks. Hyperphoshorylation of H2AX may be linked to chromatin fragmentation prior to apoptosis.


Specificity

This antibody recognizes Histone H2A.X when ubiquitylated at Lys119.
