- Product Overview:
Citrullinated histone H1.4 is a citrullinated form of histone H1.4, a nuclear protein that interacts with linker DNA regions between nucleosomes to provide nucleosome core structure stabilization.{52742} Histone H1 subtypes are comprised of a short N-terminal domain, a central globular domain necessary for DNA interaction, and long C-terminal domain that determines subtype binding properties by its variability. Histone H1.4 is expressed in most somatic cell types and is essential for survival of T47D and MCF-7 breast cancer cells and MCF-10A breast epithelial cells.{52743,52744,52745} It is subject to citrullination by protein-arginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) at arginine 54, which corresponds to arginine 53 of the immunizing peptide for Cayman’s Histone H1.4 (Citrullinated R53) Polyclonal Antibody. Citrullination releases histone 1 from chromatin, leading to chromatin decondensation in mouse embryonic stem cells.{52746} Cayman’s Histone H1.4 (Citrullinated R53) Polyclonal Antibody can be used for Western blot applications. The antibody recognizes citrullinated histone H1, and not unmodified H1, at 35 kDa from human samples.
Cayman Chemical’s mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.
Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.
Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.
Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
