General Notes
This product (Catalog No. DPABH-02607) is a rabbit-derived polyclonal antibody raised against human Histone H3. This antibody exhibits cross-reactivity with Human Histone H3 from mouse. It has been affinity purified by Protein A. Histones are small, highly basic proteins that consist of a globular domain with unstructured N- and C-terminal tails protruding from the main structure. Histone H3 is one of the five main histones that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units, called nucleosomes. In addition to their role in DNA compartmentalization, histones also play crucial roles in various biologic processes, including gene expression and regulation, DNA repair, chromatin condensation, cell cycle progression, chromosome segregation, and apoptosis. The ability of histones to regulate chromatin dynamics primarily originates from various posttranslational modifications carried out by histone-modifying enzymes.
DPABH-02607 is suitable for use in Western blot (WB) (1:500–1:2,000), IHC (1:50–1:500) applications.
DPABH-02607 is supplied as a liquid formulation in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, pH 7.3. For long-term storage, keep at −20 °C. For short-term use, store at 2–8 °C. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles to maintain antibody integrity and performance.
