• Purity: Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys8] was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography. This antibody reacts with human Histone H4. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with Human, mouse, and C. elegans. Cross-reactivity with Histone H4 from other sources has not been determined.
• Conjugation: Unconjugated
• UniProt ID: P62805
• NCBI: NP_001029249
• Storage: Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.
• Buffer/Preservatives: 0.01% (w/v) Sodium Azide
• Alternative names: rabbit anti-Histone H4 Ac Lys8 antibody, H4K8ac, H
• Note: For research use only
• Application notes: Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys8] antibody is tested for Western Blot, Dot Blot, Chromatin Immunoprecipitation, and Immunofluorescence/Immunocytochemistry. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately ~13 kDa corresponding to Histone H4 protein by Western Blotting in HeLa histone prep lysate or the appropriate cell lysate or extract. Epi-Plus antibody production in collaboration with Novus Biologicals.
• Expiration Date: 12 months from date of receipt.

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Rabbit Anti-Histone H4 [ac Lys8] Antibody. Chromatin from one million formaldehyde cross-linked HeLa cells was used with 2 ug of Anti-Histone H4 K8ac and 20 ul of magnetic IgG beads per immunoprecipitation. A no antibody (No Ab) control was also used. Immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified using quantitative real-time PCR and SYBR green dye, then normalized to the non-precipitated input chromatin, which is equal to one.
