Histone H3 is a nuclear protein and a component of the nucleosome core, a basic unit of chromatin, that is essential for organizing genomic DNA in eukaryotic nuclei.1 It is a globular protein that contains an unstructured N-terminal tail that extends outside of the nucleosome core and is subject to various post-translational modifications (PTMs), including methylation, phosphorylation, acetylation, and citrullination.1,2 Histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) is subject to acetylation and mono-, di-, and trimethylation, and these modifications are found in euchromatic promoter regions and associated with active transcription.3,4 Cayman's Histone H3K4 Monoclonal Antibody (RM186) can be used for ELISA, immunocytochemistry (ICC), multiplex-based assays, and Western blot (WB) applications.
