KAT7, also known as HBO1 or MYST2, is a histone acetyltransferase that plays a fundamental role in chromatin remodeling and transcriptional regulation. As a member of the MYST family of acetyltransferases, KAT7 is essential for DNA replication licensing, cell proliferation, and embryonic development. Its involvement in acetylating histones H3 and H4 makes it a compelling target for researchers investigating epigenetic mechanisms, cell cycle control, and developmental biology.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated in rabbit against a synthetic peptide derived from human KAT7, offers the consistency and reproducibility that demanding epigenetic research requires. Because the antibody sequence is defined and production occurs through recombinant technology, researchers can expect reliable lot-to-lot performance across extended studies and collaborative projects. The monoclonal nature ensures recognition of a single epitope, providing specificity that supports confident data interpretation.
Validation studies demonstrate robust performance across multiple applications. In western blot analysis, the antibody detects KAT7 in both human K562 and mouse NIH/3T3 whole cell lysates at dilutions between 1:500 and 1:2000, confirming cross-species reactivity. The observed band at approximately 75 kDa, slightly higher than the predicted 71 kDa molecular weight, likely reflects post-translational modifications such as glycosylation or phosphorylation commonly associated with this protein. Immunohistochemistry validation in paraffin-embedded human testis tissue shows clear staining at 1:100 dilution, demonstrating suitability for tissue-based studies examining KAT7 expression patterns.
This antibody serves researchers exploring histone modification pathways, cancer biology where KAT7 dysregulation has been implicated, and stem cell differentiation studies where chromatin remodeling is central to cellular fate decisions.
