Histone H4 serves as one of the four core histones that form the nucleosome, the fundamental unit of chromatin organization. As a highly conserved protein across eukaryotes, H4 plays essential roles in DNA packaging, gene regulation, and epigenetic inheritance. Post-translational modifications of histone H4, including acetylation and methylation at specific lysine residues, represent critical regulatory marks that influence transcriptional activity, DNA repair, and cell cycle progression, making this target central to chromatin biology and cancer research.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody against HIST1H4A offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding epigenetic studies require. Produced using recombinant technology with a defined sequence, clone 14D5 eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The mouse IgG2a isotype and affinity-purified preparation ensure reliable performance across your experimental workflow.
Validation data demonstrates robust detection across multiple platforms and species. Western blot analysis confirms specific recognition of the expected 12 kDa band in human cell lines including HepG2 and MCF7, as well as mouse and rat brain tissue lysates, supporting cross-species reactivity for comparative studies. Immunohistochemistry staining has been validated in paraffin-embedded human lung tissue and gastric cancer specimens, revealing clear nuclear localization patterns consistent with histone distribution. Flow cytometry analysis using PC-3 cells demonstrates effective intracellular detection following fixation and permeabilization.
Whether investigating chromatin remodeling mechanisms, characterizing histone modification landscapes, or exploring epigenetic alterations in disease models, this antibody provides a dependable tool for researchers studying fundamental aspects of gene regulation and nuclear organization.
