ChIP Validated H3K14ac Antibody with Positive Primer Set
Product Code : 900022

Chromatrap^®’s ChIP Validated H3K14ac Antibody and Positive Primer Set provides a complete set of tools to assist with a successful ChIP assay. Including: H3K14ac antibody, control rabbit IgG, and a positive primer set. The ChIP Validated H3K14ac Antibody and Positive Primer Set is not suitable for use with non-human species.

Background:

Histone 3 (H3) is one of the core histone proteins, comprising the protein component of chromatin. H3 is ubiquitous within chromosomes and can be found bound to most gene sequences throughout the genome. Acetylation of histone H3 occurs at several different lysine positions on the histone tail and is catalysed by a group of enzymes called histone acetyltransferases (HATs). The histone acetylation mark H3K14ac can indicate enhancer sites; helping to identify active enhancers from poised ones. H3K14ac is associated with active transcription and can be found at the start site of actively transcribed genes.

A rabbit IgG is included in this Antibody Primer Set as a negative control for the ChIP experiment.

The H3K14ac positive primer set recognises the promoter of a gene associated with active transcription and is a suitable target for this antibody.

•Applications: ChIP
•Source: Rabbit
•Concentration: 1mg/ml
•Type: Monoclonal
•Size: 50μl
•Purification: Protein A (affinity purified)
