Anti-Acetyl-Histone H2A (Lys5) Rabbit pAb

PTM BIO

Anti-Acetyl-Histone H2A (Lys5) Rabbit pAb

5

Anti-Acetyl-Histone H2A (Lys5) Rabbit pAb detects histone H2A only when it is acetylated at Lys5. This antibody has been shown to selectively recognize acetylated H2A peptide at Lys5, but not the acetylated peptide at Lys9 or unmodified peptide.

Histone H2A type 1-B/E

Histone post-translational modifications (PTMs), known as the “histone code”, are key mechanisms of epigenetics that modulate chromatin structures. The PTMs on histone including acetylation, methylation, Phosphorylatedrylation, and novel acylations directly affect the accessibility of chromatin to transcription factors and other epigenetic regulators, altering genome stability and gene transcription. Histone acetylation, tightly controlled by the opposing action of histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs), occurs primarily at lysine residues on the N-terminal tails of histones H2A (Lys5, 9, and 15), H2B (Lys5,12, 15, 16, and 20), H3 (Lys4, 9, 14, 18, 23, 27, and 36), and H4 (Lys5, 8, 12, 16, and 20), and plays vital roles in the regulation of gene expression, DNA damage repair, chromatin dynamics, etc.
