    Product Description

    Histone H3 is citrullinated by peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) at residues R2, R8, and R17 during the processes of epigenetic chromatin remodeling and neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation. In vitro, citrullinated H3 (CitH3) is released from neutrophils that have been stimulated with calcium ionophore during the process of NETosis, and can be freed from NETs by treatment with nuclease. The measurement of CitH3, either in cell lysates or released during NETosis can be used as a functional readout of pharmacological PAD inhibition.

    Needed but not supplied: Please download the kit booklet to verify if UltraPure Water (Milli-Q or equivalent) or any other components are needed for this assay.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
