The Acetyl-Histone H2B Lys23 Polyclonal Antibody (PACO00162) is a valuable tool for researchers studying epigenetics and chromatin modifications. This antibody, produced in rabbits, is highly specific for detecting acetylated histone H2B at lysine 23 in human samples. It has been validated for use in various applications, including Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and chromatin immunoprecipitation.Histone acetylation plays a key role in regulating gene expression and chromatin structure, with acetylation at lysine 23 of histone H2B specifically associated with transcriptional activation.
By targeting this specific modification, researchers can gain insights into gene regulation mechanisms and cellular processes. The Acetyl-Histone H2B Lys23 Polyclonal Antibody enables precise detection and analysis of acetylated histone H2B, making it a valuable tool for studies in epigenetics, cancer research, and developmental biology.

H2B1A: Core component of nucleosome. Nucleosomes wrap and compact DNA into chromatin, limiting DNA accessibility to the cellular machineries which require DNA as a template. Histones thereby play a central role in transcription regulation, DNA repair, DNA replication and chromosomal stability. DNA accessibility is regulated via a complex set of post-translational modifications of histones, also called histone code, and nucleosome remodeling. The nucleosome is a histone octamer containing two molecules each of H2A, H2B, H3 and H4 assembled in one H3-H4 heterotetramer and two H2A-H2B heterodimers. The octamer wraps approximately 147 bp of DNA. Transcribed exclusively in testis, and the corresponding protein is also present in mature sperm. Belongs to the histone H2B family.Protein type: DNA-bindingChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6p22.2Cellular Component: extrinsic to plasma membrane; nuclear chromosome, telomeric region; nucleoplasm; nucleosome; nucleusMolecular Function: DNA binding; protein heterodimerization activityBiological Process: establishment and/or maintenance of chromatin architecture; inflammatory response; nucleosome assembly; nucleosome disassembly; plasminogen activation; positive regulation of binding; spermatogenesis, exchange of chromosomal proteins

NCBI Summary:
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 chromatin fiber is further compacted through the interaction of a linker histone, H1, with the DNA between the nucleosomes to form higher order chromatin structures. This gene is intronless and encodes a replication-dependent histone that is a testis/sperm-specific member of the histone H2B family. Transcripts from this gene contain a palindromic termination element. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
