Anti-Histone H4 [Monomethyl Lys20] reacts with human Histone H4. A BLAST analysis suggests cross-reactivity with Human, Mouse, and C. elegans, and is predicted to react with most mammalian species. Cross-reactivity with other sources has not been determined.

Target Information

Histones are basic nuclear proteins responsible for the nucleosome structure of chromosomal fibers in eukaryotes. Two molecules of each of the four core histones (H2A, H2B, H3, and H4) form an octamer, around which approximately 146 bp of DNA is wrapped in repeating units called nucleosomes.
The linker histone H1 interacts with linker DNA between nucleosomes and functions in chromatin compaction into higher order structures.
This gene is intronless and encodes a member of the histone H4 family. Transcripts from this gene lack polyA tails but instead contain a palindromic termination element. The gene is located in the large histone gene cluster on chromosome 6.
