Histone H2A.Z is a highly conserved variant of the core histone H2A that comprises approximately 5% of the total H2A found in vertebrates.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, SUMOylation and ubiquitination.2,3 Acetylation of histone H2A.Z at lysine 7 (H2A.ZK7Ac) by the lysine acetyltransferase TIP60 is associated with transcriptional activation.3,4 Cayman’s Histone H2A.ZK7Ac Monoclonal Antibody (RM222) can be used for ELISA, immunocytochemistry (ICC), multiplex-based assay, and Western blot (WB) applications.
