MyBioSource.com's Rabbit anti-human Histone H2A.Z polyclonal Antibody(H2AFZ) is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: ELISA, and Immunohistochemistry.
Description
Variant histone H2A which replaces conventional H2A in a subset of nucleosomes. 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. May be involved in the formation of constitutive heterochromatin. May be required for chromosome segregation during cell division
