Applications

ChIP Validated Western Blot Validated Immunofluorescence Validated Dot Blot Validated Immunohistochemistry Validated

Application Notes

Applications Validated by Active Motif:
WB*: 1:500 - 1:2,000 dilution

*Note: many chromatin-bound proteins are not soluble in a low salt nuclear extract and fractionate to the pellet. Therefore, we recommend a High Salt / Sonication Protocol when preparing nuclear extracts for Western blot.

Immunogen

This Histone H3 dimethyl Arg17 asymmetric antibody was raised against a peptide containing dimethyl-Arg17 (asymmetric) of human histone H3.

Buffer

Purified IgG in 70 mM Tris (pH 8), 105 mM NaCl, 31 mM glycine, 0.07 mM EDTA, 30% glycerol and 0.035% sodium azide. Sodium azide is highly toxic.

Histone H3 dimethyl Arg17 asymmetric antibody (pAb) tested by Western blot.
HeLa nuclear extract (25 µg) probed with Histone H3 dimethyl Arg17 asymmetric antibody at a 1:500 dilution.

Histone H3 dimethyl Arg17 asymmetric pAb tested by dot blot analysis.
Dot blot analysis was used to confirm the specificity of Histone H3 dimethyl Arg17 asymmetric pAb for dimethyl Arg17 of histone H3. Peptides corresponding to the immunogen and related peptides were spotted onto PVDF and probed with Histone H3 dimethyl Arg17 asymmetric pAb at a dilution of 1:30,000. The amount of peptide (picomoles) spotted is indicated next to each row.

Background

Histone H3 is one of the core components of the nucleosome, the basic building block of chromatin. Histones are subject to a variety of chemical modifications, including post-translational modifications of the histone proteins and the methylation of cytosine residues in the DNA. Reported histone modifications include acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitylation, glycosylation, ADP-ribosylation, carbonylation and SUMOylation; these modifications play a major role in regulating gene expression. The methylation of histones can occur on two different residues: arginine or lysine.

Positive Control

Active Motif's HeLa nuclear extract (Catalog No. 36010) can be used as a positive control for Histone H3 dimethyl Arg17 asymmetric pAb.
