General description

All ChIPAb+ antibodies are individually validated for chromatin precipitation, every lot, every time. Each ChIPAb+ antibody set includes control primers (tested every lot by qPCR) to biologically validate your IP results in a locus-specific context. The qPCR protocol and primer sequences are provided, allowing researchers to validate ChIP protocols when using our antibody in their chromatin context. Each set also includes a negative control antibody to ensure specificity of the ChIP reaction.
The ChIPAb+ Dimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys9) set includes the anti-dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys9) antibody, a negative control antibody (normal rabbit serum), and qPCR primers which amplify a 110 bp region within the promoter of the human β-globin gene. The dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys9) and negative control antibodies are supplied in a scalable "per ChIP" reaction size and can be used to functionally validate the precipitation of dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys9) associated chromatin.
The methylation of histones can occur on two different residues: arginine or lysine. Histone methylation can be associated with transcriptional activation or repression, depending on the methylated residue. Lysine 9 of histone H3 can be mono-, di- or trimethylated by different histone methyltransferases (HMTs) such as SuvH39H1 or G9a. This methylated lysine can be demethylated by histone demethylases as JMJD1A, LSD1 or JMJD2C. Methylation of this residue is mainly associated with transcriptional repression.

Specificity

Dimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys9)

Immunogen

Epitope: Dimethyl Lys9
The dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys9) rabbit serum is made against a KLH-conjugated, branched synthetic peptide containing the sequence ..Rme2KSTG.., in which me2K corresponds to dimethyl-lysine at residue 9 of human histone H3

Application

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:
Sonicated chromatin prepared from untreated HeLa cells (1 X 106 cell equivalents) was subjected to chromatin Immunoprecipitation using 4 μL of either a normal rabbit antiserum or Antidimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys9) serum and the Magna ChIP A (Cat. #17-610) Kit (Please see figures). Successful Immunoprecipitation of dimethyl-histone H3 (Lys9) associated DNA fragments was verified by qPCR using β-globin ChIP Primers flanking the human β-globin promoter or primers amplifying the promoter of human GAPDH, which is transcriptionally inactive in HeLa cells. Percent Input relative to standard curves for each qPCR primer set are shown.
Please refer to the EZ-Magna A ChIP (Cat. # 17-408) or EZ-ChIP (Cat. # 17-371) protocol for experimental details.

Western blot analysis and peptide inhibition:
HeLa Acid extract were resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to nitrocellulose and probed with anti-dimethyl-Histone H3 (Lys9) (1:500, Lane 1) or preincubated with 0.4 μM Histone H3 peptide with following modifications:
Lane 2: Linear non-modified
Lane 3: Branched non-modified
Lane 4: Branched trimethyl
Lane 5: Linear trimethyl
Lane 6: Branched dimethyl
Lane 7: Linear dimethyl
Lane 8: Branched monomethyl
Lane 9: Linear monomethyl
Proteins were visualized using a goat anti–rabbit secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection system.

Epigenetic silencing of tumor suppressor genes commonly occurs in human cancers via increasing DNA methylation and repressive histone modifications at gene promoters. However, little is known about how pathogenic environmental factors contribute to cancer development by affecting epigenetic regulatory mechanisms.
