Histone H2B synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier protein) corresponds to amino acids from the N-terminal region of human histone H2B. This sequence is well conserved in most isoforms of rat and mouse histone H2B, and has low homology to other histone family members.

Product Specific Information

The antibody detects a 15 kDa* protein corresponding to the molecular mass of Histone H2B on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human A431, Jurkat, HeLa, mouse C2C12, rat PC12, and A7r5 cells.

Target Information

Histones are basic nuclear proteins that are responsible for the nucleosome structure of the chromosomal fiber in eukaryotes. Nucleosomes consist of approximately 146 bp of DNA wrapped around a histone octamer composed of pairs of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4). The nucleosomes wrap further and compact DNA into chromotin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones play a central role in transciption regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication, and chromosomal stability. H2B has a broad antibacterial activity.
