Application
Western blot using GeneTex's affinity purified anti-histone H2AvD pS137 antibody shows detection of a band at ~15 kDa corresponding to phosphorylated H2AvD (lane 2 arrow-head). Lanes contain either mock-irradiated (lane 1) or 4000-RAD gamma irradiated (lane 2) Drosophila melanogaster (3rd instar) larvae brain WC lysate separated on by SDS-PAGE and transferred to nitrocellulose. After blocking the membrane was probed with the primary antibody diluted to 1:500. Washes and reaction with secondary antibody followed incubation. Use HRP conjugated Gt-a-Rabbit IgG [H&L] MX and ECL for detection.| Product Name | Histone H2A.vS137ph (phospho Ser137) antibody |

| Product description | Rabbit Polyclonal antibody to Histone H2A.vS137ph (phospho Ser137)Variant histones H2A are synthesized throughout the cell cycle and are very different from classical S-phase regulated H2A. H2AvD is vital for viability, but the exact function of variant histones H2A is not known. H2A is a core component of the nucleosome, an octamer containing two molecules each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. The octamer wraps approximately 146 bp of DNA. HsAvD is expressed both maternally and zygotically and is found in embryos through to adults (female only). The human homologue, H2AX, is phosphorylated by ATM protein kinase when double strand DNA breaks occur. In mouse, H2AX "knock out" mice have an increased incidence of cancer. |
